Wubi Ubuntu installer

    I was just not aware of the Wubi installer Ubuntu is mailing out to 
people. I just learned how it works. It is VERY different! I was helping 
a guy who was trying to load Ubuntu but when it said to re-boot he did 
and nothing appeared to be going on. But it seems this is NORMAL with 
Wubi. Your supposed to wait until 700 MB more is installed on your HD.

    The guy I was trying to help was doing it right but not waiting for 
the second load. I hope he is now waiting and will get the SECOND 
reboot. This is a wide break from the old CD-Rom's we used to use. I 
think you need to write a panel that comes up after the first reboot 
telling the person to please wait for the second one.
