  • Well, you have not write. The last article was about how to install Linex2006 and really surprised me was how well the new Linex. Then I decided to try Ubuntu on my laptop (Toshiba Satellite A50-522), and the truth is that I was quite surprised, the installation process is simple and then everything works (yes, everything including the wireless card and graphics card acceleration 3D).
     
    The steps are simple, I guess
    and you get everything you want to save to your hard drive that you downloaded the Ubuntu CD Internet
    , because we're going to reformat everything



    Install Windows XP (I did with the backup you brought your laptop), and install everything you want to take it (I installed a minimum because they really I will always use Ubuntu, and just pull windows when absolutely necessary.) Enter

    Ubuntu CD and reboot:


    If windows restart and do nothing the CD is because you have to give priority to the CD at startup (that usually comes by default on all computers, if yours does not it is because someone has changed, if you can not do internet searches, San Google always helps, another option is to ask someone who knows a little more than you to help you with this step.)

    In press F2
    menu to select the language (English is indicated below). Select English (if you want to use the language, of course).

    install Brand Ubuntu in the following contiguous free space

    1. Enter your Name, Username, Password and Name
    2. Team (especially important username and password (and you identify the computer and through them you can use Ubuntu, so do not forget, and recognize Team Name that computer in the network, so remember best, though you can see it in Ubuntu at any time and even change it.) Giving
      • next start to install and ready, soon we will have Ubuntu installed on the hard drive, with a little screen when you turn on your computer that allows us to choose to boot Windows XP or Ubuntu (Linux).
      • NOTE: This mini how-to is done on Ubuntu 6.10 (edgy), may change with other versions (although I do not much).
