Ubuntu8.10 green Installation

Ubuntu is now the most popular Desktop Linux release version. Two versions are released each year. Each time a new version is released, the server will be congested due to a large number of user accesses. This is evident in its charm. Today, Ubuntu8.10 will be officially released immediately. Most of these Downloaders download the iso image and then install it on a dial. They are calculated based on two discs each year. This is a large number, and they are used as system disks, there are very few opportunities to use the system after installing the system. It is a waste of time to install a one-time CD for the system. Let's talk about environmental protection.

Let's talk about environmental protection. The optical disc is mainly composed of organic plastics and photosensitive organic dyes. The organic plastics are similar to plastic bags and foam lunch boxes, which are non-degradable and may cause white pollution, both Simple Landfill and burning will cause secondary pollution to the environment. Photosensitive organic dyes are organic pigments that may cause pigment pollution to the environment. To protect the environment, we should try to make as few CDs as possible. We should try to install ubuntu in other ways.

1. For beginners who want to experience ubuntu, The wubi installation method is suitable for you. You do not need to repartition and install linux directly in windows.

Install the Winmount software in windows, mount the desktop isoimage file, enter the Virtual Drive, and run wubi.exe

For more information, see Ubuntu 8.04. Use Wubi to quickly install Ubuntu.

II. The LiveUSB installation method is added to Ubuntu 8.10. It can change the USB flash disk to LiveUSB. You can use this USB flash disk to start the system and install it.

Start the iso file with the virtual machine, create LiveUSB, restart the physical computer, and change the bios to start from the USB flash disk.

Another method of starting a USB flash drive without using a virtual machine. Currently, only version 8.10RC is supported, and the official version is not supported.

★★[If any problem is found, do not use it first] Another method is to start the iso file on the hard disk and then install it. It is more complex than the previous method. For details about downloading GRUB4DOS, see http://www.linuxidc.com/linux/2008-03/11986.htm.
