Default Alias/Ubuntu

Hopefully the address is correct, Alias.
If I am not mistaken, a couple of weeks ago you asked for my notification
in this case and here it is:
My CD from "Ubuntu" has arrived and earlier as they projected, but as you
already had suggested.
Will have to decide the best way to install it on my machine with an 80BG
HD, partitioned into C,D,E and F, with C=20, D=15, E=15 and F=30 GB's. E&F
are completely free right now.
Maybe you or someone else here has a profitable idea.
The CD with "Linux" OS on it was mailed to me for free all the way from
Africa and to everyone's information here, I would like to mention the
meaning of the word "Ubuntu", it is: "Humanity To Others". In addition I am
free to edit, copy or distribute the CD as I would wish. What an enormous
generosity.
Thanks for pointing me to it, Alias.

Set your BIOS to boot from the CD. Insert the Ubuntu CD before you leave
the BIOS. You can then take a live tour without installing it and see
how you like it. It will also check out your PC for compatibility. I
would recommend installing it on second hard drive because, that way, if
one drive goes, you still have the other and don't lose both OSes
simultaneously.
