After first reboot and Kubuntu splash screen, I got a colored background with triangles and a mouse pointer. I repeated this installation and asked an advanced user for help. I was surprised that this log said that installation was still in progress. I remember waiting up to TWO Hours to finish that installation. In fact, we shoud be able to setup any distro on this basis……. I have zero experience on the kernel internals, but I will definitely look into this.

Awesome tip, lets see if I can utilize it. Can I ask you for some opinion? If you are able to handle all the installation in a WUBI-like window. Just choose which disk you want to use that has space Would you accept the real installation on the real partition? Since I had found out the real installation is far more stable than this image file approach during last year…..

Personally, I have left Ubuntu It is a necessity on my system. Under the older BIOS scheme only four primary partitions per hard drive are allowed, and they are all taken up. No Wubi, no Ubuntu on this system. However, I have not had any serious problems with stability as a result of such an installation. It is usually some update that causes stability problems when it does happen.

However, if you want to move your installation to a partition, it is possible. People do it all the time. Maybe, it is also usable for other distros if a specialist could modify the code.

Last week I got a new Lenovo notebook with a pre-installed Windows I was surprised that Wubi worked without special Windows settings. I did not deactivate Secure Boot or Fast Startup or someting else. Yes, ugly duck! You are soooo right! Maybe he can help them too. I am writing this post on my new Wubi It works! Just great!! Canonical should hire that guy! I remember my first and last foray into Linux Mint like it was yesterday.

And I did not use Wubi at the time. Some days after installing it and thinking how great it all was, I started noticing random errors popping up until one day my system would no longer boot. When I ran chkdsk to fix the filesystem corruption all my files disappeared before my eyes.

The corruption was so bad that it could not be repaired without essentially wiping the disk! I finally had to go back and use a system recovery image I had made prior to installing Mint. Thankfully, I had done that before installation. After recovering from the system image and reinstalling all updates and restoring lost data from backups on the other partitions, I blew Mint off my hard drive, replacing it with Fedora as my main Linux distribution, and never looked back.

Unfortunately, upgrading to I ended up having to do the workaround of changing the kernel line from ro to rw just to get it to boot past that prompt. I used to have a way to fix that but that method no longer works in Ubuntu at So, until I figure out the solution that will work with the new version of Ubuntu, I have to use the workaround. It is likely that you also are going to see broken Wubi installs in your future at the current rate things are going.

I almost left Ubuntu the way I left Mint, but the workaround works for now so I continue to look for answers. Currently, I am using Ubuntu I disconnected internet connection because the wubi wanted to download a daily build iso. Probably, it is not necessary, if you want a daily build iso. I have never upgraded to But I tried other upgrades from The upgrades were very slow but they worked. It is true that workarounds are removed with upgrades. This time, however, the removals were so extensive that I might as well have just installed a fresh copy of a daily build rather than attempt to upgrade and have to find and fix everything that the failed upgrade did.

I also have a bit unique setup for my Wubi installs, too. Reader Favorites Best Linux Laptops. Best Wi-Fi Routers. Awesome PC Accessories. Best Wireless Earbuds.

For instance, the Software Manager now runs a simulation prior to showing you the application, so when you look at it, it can tell you precisely which packages would be added or removed to your system, how much data would be downloaded and how much space would be taken on the hard drive. It only shows updates, not their dependencies. If the upgrade of a package requires additional changes to your system a dialog pops up with a summary to show you which packages will be installed or removed.

The corruption was so bad that it could not be repaired without essentially wiping the disk! I finally had to go back and use a system recovery image I had made prior to installing Mint. Thankfully, I had done that before installation. After recovering from the system image and reinstalling all updates and restoring lost data from backups on the other partitions, I blew Mint off my hard drive, replacing it with Fedora as my main Linux distribution, and never looked back.

Unfortunately, upgrading to I ended up having to do the workaround of changing the kernel line from ro to rw just to get it to boot past that prompt. I used to have a way to fix that but that method no longer works in Ubuntu at So, until I figure out the solution that will work with the new version of Ubuntu, I have to use the workaround.

It is likely that you also are going to see broken Wubi installs in your future at the current rate things are going. I almost left Ubuntu the way I left Mint, but the workaround works for now so I continue to look for answers.

Currently, I am using Ubuntu I disconnected internet connection because the wubi wanted to download a daily build iso. Probably, it is not necessary, if you want a daily build iso. I have never upgraded to But I tried other upgrades from The upgrades were very slow but they worked. It is true that workarounds are removed with upgrades. This time, however, the removals were so extensive that I might as well have just installed a fresh copy of a daily build rather than attempt to upgrade and have to find and fix everything that the failed upgrade did.

I also have a bit unique setup for my Wubi installs, too. The first thing I did was to convert to ext4 and async everything over to a new root. I also enlarged my swap. By doing that I ended up getting better performance than the default ext3 filesystem you get with a Wubi install. But, I think it still would have taken less time to do a fresh install and do all the conversions than it would have to fix everything and still be left with a workaround.

When But, upgrades should go more smoothly than Windows upgrades, particularly since Linux is decades old already. But even with everything I do, power management on a Linux system still is abysmal and hibernation and suspension are still epic fails on a system that actually was certified to work with Ubuntu. I wish it were otherwise. But, that is why a Wubi install makes so much more sense to me on this system. If I decide to stop doing such an install I always can just uninstall the whole thing and delete left over files, if any, without compromising the system or risking damaging the Windows boot loader.

It is your decision whether you upgrade or do a fresh install. As I wrote I did also upgrades. In my case, upgrades were very slow but it was an automatic progress with only few things which I had to do. So there is not really a reason to avoid upgrades. But there is also no reason for me to upgrade as soon as possible to I think that upgrades to I hope if I wait a little bit, it is as stable as previous upgrades.

Looks like I actually had to do a fresh install after all, today. I updated my At any rate, I cannot get past the VT. So, a fresh install it was. After that, the restoration from backup. Yes, if you can wait it would be good to avoid I have no intention of rolling back to With every point increase I could count on Wubi getting broken and losing my custom logon sound. Looks like hakuna matata updated Wubi to install ext4 by default. Kudos to him on that. All I needed to do after install was resize the root.

Moment of truth comes in just a few minutes after the file consolidation is done. I am not sure whether hakuna matata updated Wubi to install ext4 by default.

A friend downloaded a Wubi for But I am sure that hakuna matata even gives beginners the opportunity to do a fresh Wubi install with a lot of new features.
