Hi,

I have been using wubi for more than half an year. Now I want to move this wubi to local partition (normal ubuntu install). What is the best way to do it? It should be working parallel with windows 7 which i have already.

Is it possible to let windows control the booting, even after installing ubuntu?

Thanks
Kamalraj

Hi,
the easiest way would be to migrate the Wubi install to its own partition.

This fantastic guide by bcbc should get you going:

You can use LVPM to move your ubuntu install over to a dedicated partition;
Take a look at http://lubi.sourceforge.net/lvpm.html
