Hi! I've searched everywhere and I found little results. The results I found made no sense to me (including the official docs on the Installation Guide).

What I want to know is--How do I install Ubuntu on my iMac without using a CD? My CD burner is wacky and is almost never working. Is there a *definite* way to install Ubuntu without using a CD--Maybe a program that downloads the files off the internet (reminds me of Wubi from Windows...).

Please and thank you!

PS: My specs are...

400mhz Power-PC Processor
356mb RAM
8mb Video RAM

You can do it if you have another iMac with a working CD-Drive and connecting to the other through Firewire.

I don't...I only have this iMac.
