Quest1: Install Ubuntu Desktop

1. Download Ubuntu Desktop version from http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
2. Burn the file on CD-ROM (Choose to create data image file (ISO or GUI))

3. Insert the CD in the CD-ROM drive and reboot the computer.

4. Select language.
5. Select "Install Ubuntu"
6. Set up the language, time zone, and keyboard layout.

7. Partition the hard drive. In this step, I needed to 3 spaces for Window XP, Ubuntu desktop, and Ubuntu Server. The picture below shows how I partitioned. (Sorry for the bad quality picture I took the picture by my digital camera because I don't know how to take screenshots during installation.)
This was the hardest part. I failed several times on this step. I still do not know what the terms such as Swap mean. But, finally I did it!


8. Input your information.9. Click "install" and then "Restart Now". It is done!
