662502	2008-04-25 09:18:00	Jermsie: You can. Add the cdrom as a source for apt, then run dist-upgrade. You don't even need to burn a disk, just mount the iso image directly :).	Erayd (23)

662508	2008-04-26 03:40:00	Anyone know if Ubuntu will install on Virtual PC 2007?Have tried to do that and it keeps coming up with error (inoperable or something). Don't want to dual boot. Does this mean I have to use VMWare?	Neil McC (178)

Does this mean I have to use VMWare? Download and burn the ISO from the Ubuntu website (from one of the mirrors anyway). On the disc there is a program called Wubi which can install Ubuntu SAFELY within a windows install. It works as a separate OS. Really easy to uninstall too.	jermsie (6820)
