Installing Ubuntu
Ubuntu is really easy. First, you must of course you get a current version of Ubuntu Linux. This can be either free in order www.ubuntu.com on a CD, or your you load the latest version just under www.ubuntuusers.de guide (about 700 MB). After the download you must burn the ISO file to a CD. Have you done this, you can get started with the installation, but you should note the following:
- Ubuntu can be installed easily on Windows. It is however recommended to back up all data before, because when you install bit of what can go wrong. For me, however, everything worked out fine.
- You should do the installation with an existing Internet connection, as the latest updates can then be downloaded directly. In addition, you must, under the main installation to make a few extra installations, the software packages must be downloaded
step 1 of the installation: you choose the language
Step 2: Select the time zone
Step 3: keyboard setting - there are world wide keyboard, you must select your keyboard. The right would be "Germany Eliminated dead keys"
Step 4: selecting the partition to be installed on Ubuntu.
Here you can choose to free unpartitioned space to be used, or if your an existing partition shares. Meisst share man has no free memory left and need the partition. It is recommended here is to not split the partition installed on Windows, but on a different partition. You can now set with a slider the partition size.
Then comes the "Prepare partitions" man in the menu.
IMPORTANT : For the partition to be installed on Ubuntu, has a mount point / (meaning "root") can be selected, otherwise complained the installer, that no root partition set was. To do this click first on the partition will be installed on Ubuntu, then "Edit partition" elect and then as "Mount Point" .
Step 5: Make user data - here you can take your user data from other Linux installations. Here I do not however discuss it in detail, as in the admin.php no previous Linux installation is finished.
Step 6: Create user data
Step 7: Check and selection, here again you get a summary of the previously entered setting you can check and if necessary, can change that by "back" is about. In
Clicking "Install" guide you through the installation. Then a restart is required, where you have to remove the CD.
The installation is really very easy. Try it, it will be worth it! More support on Ubuntu installation you find here
