Hello folks. Well I'm trying to setup kubuntu using the 10.04 Desktop i386 ISO and wubi. When wubi ask me to reboot.. I reboot, there's new bootloader. But when I select Kubuntu in boot menu, my monitor turns off- NO SIGNAL .No display..No X starting...Any idea what is bugging??:(:(

Wubi of past relases like 8.04 worked in the past for me...

FWIW I'm not a big fan of WUBI even though it looks very easy to setup.

The main reason is if Windows takes a dump on you, I believe you will also lose the ability to access Ubuntu. Correct me if I am wrong.

This is why I always preferred doing a dual boot setup. Dual booting is only a little bit more involved to setup but after it's done you will have two OSs for use on your PC independent of each other. If one fails you always have the other to use.
