Hi.
I've installed ubuntu server and didn't install all the options I needed. Example, I didn't install Samba File server. How do I go back just to install this rather than going through the whole re-installation again? The Fix Broken Install doesn't work as it still asks to reformat, etc....

Thanks.

Use apt-get install to add things after the initial installation.

Thanks. I was thinking I could do it through cd but I used "apt-get install samba" and all worked. Thanks again.
