Fancy messing with Linux? Try Wubi! (One Minute Tech Video!)
Mar 24th
Subscribe for more 1 minute tech videos! A ‘just’ over the 1 minute limit tech video on how to install Linux through the program Wubi from INSIDE windows. Steps to take; 1) Go to your web-browser and navigate to the website; wubi.sourceforge.net 2) Click on the download now button, and then once the download has finished double click on the ‘Wubi.Exe’ file. 3) Select the Drive you wish to install Wubi onto, and then select the storage space you wish to allocate to your version of Linux – I would suggest a minimum of 10GB, yet on the contrary to what I have suggested in the video, 30GB would not really be necessary. 4) Select the version of Linux you would like to install – I would reccommend UBUNTU. 5) Set a password and click install! 6) Next time you restart windows – Use the directional arrows to choose Linux, and boot into Ubuntu! NOTE – The 15/20 minute install period I quoted in the video does not include the time it will take you to download the Linux.iso file which is necessary to install your chosen version of Linux from. This process I would imagine would take about a hour on most people’s internet connections. Thanks!
