[ubuntu-in] How to install ubuntu 10.04 lucid as part of XP2

[Sriranga(77yrsold)]

What Narendra Diwate says correct. In case winXp crashed automatically
ubuntu is also crashed,
So re-installing winxp from scratch and ubuntu have to done. However for
ubuntu by using recovery CD it can be restored after installing winxp- this
aspect have to be checked with ubuntu forum Knowing this I have done taking
risk    Wubi exe  is for newbie to linux users. Anyway there is always risk
in all methods. you have decide yourself based on merits of the issue
(advantage and disadavantage) For your information I had upgraded within
9.04 to 10.04 - Upgrade software of ubuntu.
>other question is that will i be able to fix Hindi or other language
>typing system in Ubuntu if it is a part of windows ?  NO  Once installed
ubuntu it will be independent for all purpose on par as if installed thro
CD. Why i have done is -  partition is problem for me is head-ache.

If the method of partition made in Xandraos 4.1(trail version) is adopted
for ubuntu also - it would have more helpful because during partition time,
one can view the files of each partition in Xandros by using browsing button
in the partition tool table to avoid loss of data of winxp etc.- before
starting write to disk.
