One has to assume something & given that it is a Windows installer & the
instructions show installing from Windows...
<quote>Wubi is an officially supported Ubuntu installer for Windows
users that can bring you to the Linux world with a single click. Wubi
allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu as any other Windows
application, in a simple and safe way. Are you curious about Linux and
Ubuntu? Trying them out has never been easier!

I agree on the other though; they should have this at the top of the
wubi faq and wiki:
