How do I install Ubuntu Linux on a PC without removing the Windows OS?
Q. I have a laptop with Windows XP on it. My friend has Ubuntu Linux on his laptop and I really like it. How can I install Ubuntu Linux on my laptop, without removing the Windows XP OS? (I want to have them both)
A. Installing Ubuntu as a dual-boot with Windows without partitioning
http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/wubi
With Windows 7 you need to run the installer in vista compatability mode
You keep Windows as it is, Wubi only adds an extra option to boot into Ubuntu. Wubi does not require you to modify the partitions of your PC, or to use a different bootloader, and does not install special drivers. It works just like any other application.
Wubi keeps most of the files in one folder, and if you do not like it, you can simply uninstall it as any other application.
Boot in to windows insert the Ubuntu 9.10 LiveCD and you will offered the option of installing inside windows which is where the Wubi installer comes in, you will be asked how many gigabytes you wish to allocate to Ubuntu (I recommend 8gb) then you set a password for your installation then click install and thats it.
Once Ubuntu is fully installed upon starting your PC you will be given a choice of which operating system you want to use Windows or Ubuntu

I am new to Ubuntu Linux where should I start?
Q. I installed an old copy of ubuntu linux 6 and I am fairly new to it. I would like to know where to find programs for ubuntu, how to install them, how to troubleshoot some minor problems (such as getting the Internet to work) etc. Is there a good website for this sort of stuff?
A. Ubuntu 6.10 is no longer supported. You can get it up and running with a little extra work but why make it hard for yourself.
Take a look at Linux Mint 5 (Main Edition) its easy to install easy to use and has much of the software you are likely to need preinstalled.

Linux Mint 5 Download

Linux Mint 5 installation tutorial
http://www.howtoforge.com/the-perfect-desktop-linux-mint-5-elyssa-r1
You download the ISO. image of Linux Mint 5 then you need to create a Bootable CD from the ISO. This can easily be done using Nero Burning ROM or similar software. Linux Mint 5 can also be run straight from the LiveCD you have created without touching your Hard Drive.
An alternative release of Ubuntu worth looking at is 8.04.2 http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ The installation tutorial I have supplied above also applies to Ubuntu 8.04.2
There is a wealth of help and documentation from the Ubuntu Community and much of it applies to Linux Mint as well https://help.ubuntu.com/community
Coming soon is the AWESOME Ubuntu 9.04 which I am currently testing.
NOTE : Avoid Ubuntu 8.10 as it is utterly dreadful and this will be made abundantly clear upon the release of Ubuntu 9.04
