Dual Booting Ubuntu Linux in Windows

It will not be wrong to say that installing Ubuntu in Windows is the easiest thing to do for anybody. All you need is Windows already installed, a CD of Ubuntu (which you can order or download from ubuntu.com) and I recommend atleast 12 GB of free space, How do we do it?

  • Boot into Windows.
  • Insert the Ubuntu CD. On autoplay, you will be given three options, select "Install inside Windows".
  • Select the appropriate drive. For installation size, go for the maximum that your free space allows.
  • Set the username and password and hit Enter.
  • Installation takes 6-7 minutes and asks you to reboot.
  • Reboot and there you go, select Ubuntu in the choice of OS that you get.
