I am trying to put together a Installation Self Help Guide. This is just a guide that anyone new to computers can print off and look to if they have any problems while installing Ubuntu.

Idea…
Well, as I said before, I just want a guide people can print off and follow while installing. It will explain everything to them in English what everything means, and can tell them what to do when they run into any problems.

And…
Well, I am going to be writing about problems that I have had when installing, why I ran into those problems, and how they can be fixed. The thing is, I have only had a few problems. That could maybe make just a few pages in the guide. I need you, if you have had any problems when installing Ubuntu. If you want to take part in this, just email me at josh (at) ubuntuos.com with the problem you had, what was causing it, and how you fixed it. Any maybe a link to your website so I can give you credit in the guide. You can also post a comment on this post if you want.

When…
Well, I hope to have it soon, though something like this isn’t easy. The sooner people submit their installation problems, the sooner it will get done.

Anything Else…
Anyone can help. Just submit any ideas, artwork maybe, suggestions. To do that, just post a comment on this post or email me at the address listed above.

Will this guide be for Breezy or Dapper?

Probably Dapper, as by the time I get it all done, Dapper will be out. Though things in general that will probably still apply to Dapper will be fine too, unless it was a bug in the actual installation file and has been fixed in Dapper.
