So, I tried to install ubuntu server on an old laptop--has no screen--to run a local server at my home for some upcoming web project testing.

The laptop has usb ports, but no cd/floppy capabilities. I used the plop workaround in windoes to boot from the usb. Well the install failed and windows is gone, so there is now way to boot from any device.

What other options are there? Install on another laptop and swap the hard drives?
