Hi. This is an extreme newbie question. What I know about Ubuntu can be writtten on the proverbial postage stamp, but I have to start somewhere. I have a network connection on this laptop and have tested an install on this machine but, horrors, I find I am connected to the internet to start downloading files. My other laptop doesn't have a connection to the internet. Yet. How can I install xubuntu without one? I have a CD drive and I thought that a CD install would be all I needed. Most of the How to sites say you need an internet connection. The file I want to install is called: "xubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386". I have a very old laptop with a broken version of windows 2000 Pro installed in one partition and XP installed in another and only 256kb of Ram. (PS: From Friday I won't have this laptop and currently the other one is having the screen fixed so .... I can't practise much.".
Thanks
