Sorry for my bad english and thanks in advance!

[Habbloxian]

@serialkissersband Make sure you download the full ISO, and it doesn't stop mid-way.

This happened to me once.

[Habbloxian]

[Musketeerable]

when my laptop is istalling ubuntu netbook it says something to skip or not.. shoul i skip it ir not??

[SilentFool602]

When you install it to enable dual-boot, should the resizing of the partition take a long time?!

[Habbloxian]

@SilentFool602 there are no partitions in Wubi.

[CTFSALPHA]

@SilentFool602

Think about it. I'm sure you know of how long it takes for shifting large files from one hard drive, say, a removable one, to an internal one. Quite lengthy, eh?

Now, resizing it down to the left isn't that big of an issue, because it just shrinks the partition's data range. Simple. But to the right...

It's got to move every. Single. Byte of data. Over to that side. Your standard transfer rates still apply, so you'd better grab some coffee and let it do its' thing.

[JPRHD]

mines is stuck at the prurple screen with the red white dots

[CDA441]

@JPRHD same on here...

[loltpily2114]

@JPRHD It may not be stuck, because mine took about 10 minutes :P

[chavez302]

I am curious, during the installation around 70% completion there is a button on the right hand corner that appears. It reads "skip" I believe, what does that do? Does it alter anything in the installation procedure?

[donttalkblahblahbla]

when you install windows xp you can format you harddisk can you do it in the ubuntu installation ?

[zer0statusYT]

can i uninstall windows 7 after installing this

[SuperMrRoro]

does installing ubuntu erase any data from ur computer? PLZ REPLY!!!

[Justgoodvids]

@SuperMrRoro @SuperMrRoro dude I would start out with a live cd of 9.10 which is hella easy to install unlike the newest version give it some space by choosing the allocate option and then install, from their i would just upgrade it to 10.04 which would later go to 10.10 so do it ASAP, make sure your comp isn't 10 years old otherwise you'll be screwed, if so then install 9.10 and don't upgrade. :) Good luck! Just ask me for help if you need it, at Help4Linux on Twitter! Oh and Wubi Is great!

[shammydudedude]

@SuperMrRoro there will be a choice for that.

but only if you want it to be deleted

[cookingboy3]

I use Wubi to install, but theres a weird glitch, when my computer shuts down, the splash screen appears, just the graphics are screwed.

:/

[Monist666]

After the Ubuntu loading screen which takes.. FOREVER, I goto a black screen with text telling of an missing file? Help... I've attempted to install 4 times, and have downloaded the iso 3 times :/

[carlosdelira]

so is this windows or mac? for example- when sometimes i download a file it ask if its a windows or a mac. Which one should i choose?

[muhammad517]

Dude I just installed ubuntu 10.04 today and when I rebooted my pc I was bought to cmd looking page(terminal)--so I entered my username and password-- I don't no wa to do after that--- please tell me wa to do

[cuteboybunty]

ok can i use yahoo messenger 10.0 and live messenger on ubuntu

and which type of performance ubuntu gives on 1gb ram and dule core

[Psyco430404]

@cuteboybunty no yahoo messenger what so ever to my knowledge, not sure on live messenger, never tried it. Pidgeon however is compatable with the two clients, and as far as performance is concerned it may be a little sluggish, but more than useable. I might suggest you use Xubuntu because its lighter on dependencies.

hope that helps

[amanghotra1982]

Can anybody help please I recently Install Ubuntu 10.04. and i am having window vista, In vista I have 30 GB free.?

[MiZoSpaDe]

[ka17rim]

I installed ubuntu yesterday in my laptop & then the screen freezes a lot duno why

[MrKeithburnette]

I tried installing Ubuntu 10.04 as well as Kubuntu with no success. I am using a Quad Core Athlon X2 620 processor, 4GB RAM, with 64-bit Windows Ultimate. I have used wubi, but it seems that after the program installs I get some sort of load failure screen, and it takes me to a grub screen that wants me to prompt Repair Grub, load Grub, or load Windows 7 are the options given.

Additionally, my Internet Connection fails, it shows an Internet connection that's valid . Anyone able to help?

[150man2007]

OK I'm already running Ubuntu as my main OS. 9.10. Is there any way to get it from the update tool?

[MrTarak5557]

At 0:26 The Screen that shows, install ubuntu, and other options.

This screen didnt show up when i was installing mine.

Any idea why. It took me directly to 1.24

What to do?

[SonicXRulz]

@MrTarak5557 yeah mine too!

[numbskull20]

When I boot from the cd I don't get the language select or installation menu. I just get stuck on the screen the same as 0:54 in this vid. Anyone know what's wrong?

[billabY]

Can I after Installing Ubuntu uninstall Windows Xp that I have in order to save disk space & make it easier on my my system by having only one OS rather than 2..???

[friawan88]

well it seems to be abit slow when you opening even simple things like internet browser and the wallpaper window.... OMG it took about 11 sec,

[viking1au]

It is junk. As a normal upgrade from 9.10 using update manager, it lost the lot, 'cos it did not like something it had previously downloaded as part of a normal update. --- Screwed my entire hard drive, so noe with the disk, I am putting 9.10 back in, along with its 283 updates. Then it will be Flash, then my entire address book, then a few programs via Synaptic. Maybe in a month it will be back to normal. - Then I will get Virtual Box & start looking for a better distro. -- 10.04 SUCKS!

[PacManJulie]

I see the need... the need for speed.. Intel x25X SSD

[LazyFrogg]

@ThePcTrickster y would u upgrade to 9.10 if u can upgrade to 10.04

[LazyFrogg]

Ubuntu is sooo cool it would be my Only OS if it could run iTunes!! :(

[samgower]

@LazyFrogg same here :( lol

[canitakeacopyofthat]

Guys I can't install ubuntu on my computer. Whenever I try to allocate the hard disk with partition magic I get an error saying "partition's drive letter cannot be identified". What can I do? Are there anyone who can help me?

[kbr247]

@canitakeacopyofthat install it on the C drive

[canitakeacopyofthat]

@kbr247 I am trying to install ubuntu as the second OS. I am running vista and its already installed on the C drive and I don't have any other partitions, only C. I tried to shrink the HDD with vista's default shrinking tool, but it shows only 5 gb as shrinkable. Half of my HDD is empty and I am still trying to find a way to dual-boot my computer..

[thenerdturtle]

@canitakeacopyofthat

Use wubi! Its so easy and simple! No partitioning needed!

....And I can't stop using exclamation points! Wheee!

[canitakeacopyofthat]

@thenerdturtle I just finished installing it.. After restarting, dual boot screen showed up and after selecting ubuntu, it continued installation but in the loading screen I got an error saying "no root file system defined" and I couldn't go any further. I kept getting the same error after rebooting three times. What is this now? Won't I ever install linux on my computer. Even my old crappy computer was running it smoothly..

[thenerdturtle]

@canitakeacopyofthat

Did you use Windows 7 with Ubuntu?

[thenerdturtle]

@canitakeacopyofthat

Lol, sorry, hit reply to soon...

Try running it in vista compatibility mode (for windows 7) and make sure you run it as an administrator.

[PacManJulie]

@canitakeacopyofthat

Have you tried re=Booting your system?

Thats $25 for technical advice

[Thrillcekr]

@PacManJulie Hahahaha!!!!!!

[MrShoy]

I have to wait tomorrow for the Linux Mint 9 is released (since it's based on this Ubuntu) :/
