An introduction to Wubi
,----[ Quote ]
| So, a machine that seemed destined only ever run Windows can run Linux now as
| well. Wubi comes across as a neat and clever way to get a dual booting
| computer and I hope to leave mine as I now have it. No feathers were ruffled
| on the Windows side and I saw no sign of any destruction. That makes Ubuntu’s
| way of doing things a much better option than other distributions that make
| you go down more invasive routes when creating a dual booting PC.

Wubi: The Easy Way To Test-Drive Linux On A Windows PC

| There must be a catch, right? Not really: If you're looking for a realistic,
| fully functional Linux desktop experience, Wubi comes awfully close. While
| you will see a slight performance penalty running Ubuntu on a Windows file
| system rather than on a native Linux partition, keeping your Windows disk
| defragmented will keep the difference to a minimum.

When Dubie met Wubi
,----[ Quote ]
| Loyal readers of this column will remember our four-part series on installing
| one of the more popular distros of Linux, Ubuntu. Now that Ubuntu 8.4 LTS
| (Long-Term Support) has been released, with Firefox 3, you might be curious
| about how to check out and possibly use this upstart OS, but you're reticent
| because of all the nastiness you've heard about partitioning your hard drive,
| which once fell into the realm of Upper Geekdom.
|
| Worry no more. Wubi, a free Ubuntu installer for Windows, handles all that
| folderol. It installs Ubuntu as though it were another application on your
| hard drive, and you can delete it at your leisure. You can then test drive
| Ubuntu and its open-source applications, then switch back to Windows if you
| so desire.
