Ubuntu Installation In Windows

| Nowadays, installing a Linux flavored OS on your computer shouldn't be such a 
| hard task to accomplish because there are tools out there that do it without 
| you having to juggle around with your hard disk's partitions and even give a 
| damn about what is happening under the hood. These days, we have come to a 
| point when we can install Linux from inside our Windows OS by using a native 
| Windows executable.

I now have a bunch of OpenSUSE DVDs that do the same (Windows installers).

A Linux Experience

| I tested my setup for about 45 days and found that I didn’t ever boot into 
| the Windows partition. So I bought a large external hard drive and copied 
| whatever was left on that partition over to it. Then I used GParted to append 
| that space to the Ubuntu partition. So, at this point, I am a full time 
| Ubuntu user. So far so good. I’ll post more impressions about this as time 
| goes by.

That's how it usually works.
