Information on dual booting can be found here.Installing Ubuntu on a VM Using VirtualBox A tutorial on how to install and run Ubuntu on a new virtual machine alongside your main OS. Otherwise, the default option presented during the installation is the best choice (will overwrite everything on the disk). If you are intending to dual boot (keeping more than one operating system on the same computer), you will need to know how to partition manually.

If you are using wireless to connect to the internet, you may first want to boot into the live system, connect to the internet and install from there. The output should be identical to the respective checksum found at the link below the downloads above. Go to the download directory, and use the command line program sha256sum. Several methods are available, we recommend using SHA256. Check ISO for corruption using checksumĪfter downloading the ISO, make sure to check it for corruption. The DVD image is about 2.6 GB, and can either be burned to DVD, or used to create a bootable USB stick.

Note that amd64 ISO images are for intel and amd-based systems as the architecture is identical. If you wish to use desktop environments other than Plasma (by KDE), Ubuntu Studio can be installed on Ubuntu or any official Ubuntu flavor using the Ubuntu Studio Installer.
