Wubi (Ubuntu Installer for Windows) is the most popular Ubuntu installation method. The birth of Wubi allows more people to install and use Ubuntu in Windows by installing common application software. The Ubuntu 8.10 system installed with Wubi is a real physical system rather than a virtual machine. This means that the Ubuntu system runs at full speed on your computer. [In addition to disk performance .]

Before I installed Ubuntu 8.04, I tried Wubi for the first time. Therefore, there are many problems in Wubi articles, and many readers may ask questions.

Now, I am not talking about how to use Wubi to install Ubuntu 8.10.

The first thing you need to do is download the LiveCD installation CD image of Ubuntu 8.10 (see the http://www.linuxidc.com/Linux/2008-10/17040.htm ). You can burn it out or directly use a virtual optical drive to mount an ISO image. I will not introduce how to use the virtual Optical Drive. There are many virtual optical drive software in Windows, such as Daemon Tools and Winmount. I recommend that you use the latter. Because the latter is free of charge, and it is easy to install and use.

Mount ISO or insert a CD. If you do not disable automatic playback without Windows XP, you can see the following interface. If you do not see the background, you can enable the optical drive and double-click umenu.exe ".

Click "Install in Windows". The installation Setting dialog box is displayed. Select a partition with sufficient space. The partition format must be NTFS. If the installation size is 4 GB, we recommend that you have more than 5 GB free space. Select to install on disk D. After the system is installed, Ubuntu is actually located in D: \ Ubuntu. The installation size can be determined based on the actual situation. Select 4 GB here. The installation size determines the size of the Ubuntu system partition. If the space permits, you can set a larger value to install more software in Ubuntu later. Set the user name and password. Keep others by default. Click Install to start installing the system.

Wubi will prepare an image for the installation of the CD and prepare other installation preparations.

After that, Wubi will prompt you to restart the system.

So far, the installation phase in Windows is complete. After the system is restarted, it will automatically boot into the Ubuntu installation program and start installation automatically. No manual interference is required throughout the process. I will not talk nonsense about the installation process. If you do not have a high-speed Internet connection that can directly obtain an IP address, we recommend that you unplug the network cable first. This saves a lot of time.
