Ehh, I have been full of questions all night.

Okay, I have a computer with Windows, and I plan on putting Kubuntu on it (My 3rd Linux computer). I was out of CDs to use, so I figured I could use a DVD for a 700MB ISO for the sake of linux. As soon as I pop in the DVD to burn it I realize my DVD Drive in my computer is actually a cheap junkie CD/CD-R Drive.

So, is there a way to install Linux onto a PC without the use of a CD? Or do I have to go look for a DVD Drive in my house, or go buy 10CDs at Rite-Aid just for one :|

You can install from USB, do a net installation, or use Wubi and install inside Windows partition.
