\"\" Just couple of days ago, Canonical had announced the release of the second beta of Ubuntu Linux<\/a>. I wanted to try out the second beta ( I haven’t tried the 10.04 series yet) – but being a beta version I thought I’ll do a Wubi install, instead of a traditional install. Once I mounted the ISO file and launched Wubi, I ran into a roadblock.<\/p>\n

Wubi on the beta ISO proceeded to download the current stable version,i.e., Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala, instead of proceeding to install Lucid. I thought I had downloaded the wrong ISO image, so I went back to the releases page<\/a>, and just as I was about to redownload the ISO, I spotted at the very end of the page, a link to wubi.exe<\/a>. Feeling curious to try it out, I proceeded to download, and voil\u00e0! Wubi install of Lucid was underway.<\/p>\n

Bad news, however is that if you’ve already downloaded Lucid CD image, Wubi will proceed to re-download the ISO image. I tried putting my downloaded ISO image in wubi\\install folder, and tried to start Wubi install. That, however, resulted in Wubi asking me to uninstall the existing version. In the end, I had to download the CD image again.<\/p>\n

If you want to know more about Wubi and how to do a dual boot Windows and Linux install, do refer to our previous guide on dual booting Ubuntu and Windows using Wubi<\/a>.<\/p>\n
