Hello guys,
I got a DVD which has ubuntu and some other software in it with a computer magazine. On the DVD cover it says BOOTABLE in big letters below UBUNTU. The DVD has some other software in it too. So what I wanna know is IS it possible to install ubuntu from it? Im a little bit skeptic as it has other software along it, then how can my pc boot from the components of ubuntu and install it on only my PC?
Thanks in advance.

I never worked with DVD but probably it is additional software added witch you can install from DVD.Nothing else cross my mind.

Hi, cherrywarrior.

You can run the DVD 'live",

This is old, but works for dvd.
