I manage a remote computer (3 time zones away) and am also interested
in maybe installing Ubuntu.  In my case I currently have two complete,
matching, bootable copies of White Box Linux installed on different
partitions; one as backup in case I remotely broke the other.  

I can ask a person at the computer to do simple things for me (make
grub menu choices if I break the default, type short things in a
terminal window, etc.).

How easy would it be to install Ubuntu from so far away?


Thanks,
