Hi all,

Here is the deal : I have a bootable USB key, wich allow me to launch Ubuntu 9.04 (live session or persistant session), and even to install ubuntu on a computer (if I'm not mistaken...)

I'd like, if possible, to use this key to install 10.04 on my computer using this USB key and the 10.04 iso (which I would just copy on the key), of course without formating the key to make it a 10.04 bootable key (no interest in doing that !). Namelly, I imagine something like booting a live session of 9.04 with the key, lauch something (you tell me what :p ) that allow to install ubuntu from the iso...

Or another example : under windows, if I mount the iso on a virtual drive, I can install Ubuntu immediatly ; Isn't there any way to do the same thing under a live session of Ubuntu 9.04 : mounting the 10.04 iso on a virtual drive and launch a kind of installer ?


Thanks !
