Vstuffs: 0. Before carrying out the steps below ensure you create a partition you want to install the os by shrinking your current os partition and selecting the size you want to create in "computer management" 1. Insert the bootable disk into the disk drive 2. Boot from the disk (using one of the function keys) 3. Follow the os guide to install it, when you get to the options of how you want to install it. Select "something else" 4. Go to the partition you want install the os and and select "ext4" as partition table 5. Select the "/" also 6. Click "ok" 7. Make sure you change the partition to install ubuntu to the one you shrinked earlier on. 8. Click next, you should be able to do the rest alone. 1 Like |

gememerald: What about installing Ubuntu 12.01 using wubi? I tried it but showing mounting error thing. |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by gememerald(m): 9:37am On Dec 27, 2014 |
just2endowed: The use of wubi won't work effectively like the steps i posted above. Just follow those steps and if you don't understand anything let me know. |

gememerald: OK, I have partition my HDD into 2 and I have window 7 and 8 in both partitions. I like to install Ubuntu inside window7 using wubi...... I have the Ubuntu 12.01 |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by gememerald(m): 6:14pm On Dec 27, 2014 |
just2endowed:It doesn't work that way, the best method to do it are the steps I listed earlier on, just follow them. You may corrupt your boot mgr trying to use wubi. |

gememerald:boss I have a problem installing ubuntu 14.04 LTS on my dell inspiron 3520. The problem is that the ubuntu os refuses to recognize the partitions I created using windows 7 when I get to step 4. As a matter of fact it thinks there is no other operating system and sees my harddisk drive as a single unit. Please I need your help on this issue 1 Like 1 Share |

Celebrimbor: From your write up, I think you don't understand how to install it. Choose "something else" then go on with the next steps. Anyways I can guide you through it on whatsapp. |

Re: Ubuntu Linux by purplekayc(m): 11:37am On Mar 01, 2015 |
ahmmyreal:4llerbuntu ask him |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by blackweaver(m): 10:56am On Mar 02, 2015 |
ahmmyreal: Choice of distribution is relative, red hat is usually better for oracle based developers (at least red hat is supported by oracle) but generally it's a matter of choice. Ubuntu is good because there is a lot of community based support, if you do a google search for any issue, chances are that 30-60% if not more of the solutions found would be ubuntu-based. That said, most solutions can be applied to almost any other linux distro. At the end of the day, you will be the judge of which distro works best for you |

Hi buddies, I wanna do a total overhaul of OS on my Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E520 from Win 7 to dual boot into Win 8.1 and Linux... Which linux version do you recommend. Which should I install first? Windows or Linux? Regards. |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by tsdarkside(m): 11:51pm On Mar 04, 2015 |
ubuntu linux,,,is a very stable OS...... is even better than windows....my opinion.. |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by tsdarkside(m): 11:54pm On Mar 04, 2015 |
moshoodn: i never understood dualboot..... but its your time... you can use virtualization for that...dont waste your time... i remember,first install windows,,,,than linux... linux is more smooth..... |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by moshoodn(m): 11:59pm On Mar 04, 2015 |
tsdarkside: Thanks tsdarkside. Do you recommend the Ubuntu 14 LTS or Linux Mint? |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by tsdarkside(m): 12:00am On Mar 05, 2015 |
ahmmyreal: i would not concentrate on a OS.. the world is moving fast..very fast... concetrate on all OS.............. |

just2endowed: what is wubi? |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by just2endowed: 12:17am On Mar 05, 2015 |
tsdarkside: Windows Ubuntu Based Installer . It's use to install Ubuntu inside window operating system. So instead of removing all ur operating system, u can install Ubuntu inside ur window 7 or xp. |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by blackweaver(m): 10:14am On Mar 06, 2015 |
moshoodn: Windows first, The linux bootloader will detect windows installations. Windows only cares about windows |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by blackweaver(m): 10:24am On Mar 06, 2015 |
just2endowed: Wubi sort of makes installation easier, but linux installed using wubi is slower than linux installed in it's own partition. Also because wubi creates a file inside a windows partition where it installs linux, if your windows gets corrupt it means you probably won't be able to access your linux either (unless the file is in another partition) 1 Like |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by dazekid(m): 10:15pm On Mar 06, 2015 |
blackweaver: You can also create new partitions during ubuntu installations using wubi, and then you get the same boot options as a regular installation. |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by tsdarkside(m): 9:59am On Mar 07, 2015 |
just2endowed: okay...its virtualization...thank you... |
