Ubuntu Installation Succeeded

Yes, finally I can be able to install the Ubuntu Linux 8.10. After 3 hours battle trying to install this OS, eventually linux has been installed into my old laptop (not really old). The CD is actually corrupted but my friend’s baby oil has saved me..ahaha…. I m serious!

 

This is the step:

  1. try to convert the Ubuntu Cd into .iso file.

  2. Error occur. “fatal error occurred on MsgicIso.”. (So my hope is almost fade away.)

    I concluded that some sector in cd has corrupted.

  3. The first time burn is using the Magic Iso. Later, I try the Iso Recorder.

    But before I install, I moved cd out and try to clean it.

    But This part has saved me. I took the baby oil, and clean up the Cd and do new convert. I guess it will stuck, because past 3 days, I ve tried so many times and result failure.But this time, even there are error reading for some sector in cd, the Iso recorder try to correct the error occurred. Thanks to Iso recorder. It is powerful tools to convert CD data to .iso file.

  4. After that I try to install the converted file using Wubi. The Wubi installation is very simple. Just run it and it will detect your iso file. After configure little setting, the Wubi will do the rest. While waiting you can have a cup of coffee and lie down sometimes.

  5. Finally, It has been installed. So know I have ubuntu 8.10 into my laptop.

 

Installation tools:

  1. Wubi.exe

  2. Iso Recorder

  3. Corrupted CD(this is my cd condition, but not severe!)

  4. baby oil (to clean the CD. Not recommended. I force to do this)

  5. Windows XP os.(I run wubi from windows)

  6. Just Install it!

 

Thanks.
