I loaded the file onto my flash drive, and I downloaded the image reader program. I just bought an Acer Aspire One netbook, with windows XP. When I click on "write", it says "image file cannot be located on the requested device". But, if I go into my computer and look at what's on the flash drive, it says it's there. Any suggestions?

Did you follow these (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromImgFiles#Windows) instructions?

You don't put the .img file on the flash drive, you need an empty flash drive and the file on your hard drive (or whatever substitute for a hard drive your netbook has).
