Get away to Linux in some steps...

How? Install Ubuntu (Linux) on my computer preserving data and maintaining Windows, without any risk from configuration and/or data loss?


Introduction:

First I would like to clarify that this tutorial is unique, was not copied or plagiarized from another person, is shown with own images, taken the time to do so.

Linux advantages are numerous, it is the most robust, stable and fast operating system that exists. It is also free and open source. There are many Linux distributions, so Ubuntu the most popular, it is based on the Debian distribution, which makes it more stable and up-to-date. Another difference with other systems is that it is able to simultaneously update all your applications installed on the odenador on the basis of repositories.


Steps to obtain the operating system and have a CD:


Before you can install this operating system, we will have to be physically, then the first thing we do is enter the official website of Ubuntu)) and we will unload, attention:






At the end of the download, we will be in the folder which by default are saved our downloaded files, then look for the file .ISO and what we will do will be recorded on a CD (or a USB pendrive, it last) with the help of Winrar or Universal USB installer)




Well, with the CD in hand in hand with the operating system we now come to the next step:

Steps prior to the installation of the operating system:


We shall now proceed to installing Ubuntu, we have to take into account, when you use Windows, so there is no problem of compatibility or configurations, we will have to partition the hard drive, but there is that fear, because to move in the installer, he us the dira and we will do it from there. Keep very careful with the movements that you do and you do not leave the tutorial, it tends to be a little more complex. Pay attention:

First and foremost, we will do a defragmentation of the disk, either with the Windows, Tune Up, Defraggler, or any kind, in detail, to avoid future drawbacks with partitions.

Before you begin the installation we will have to configure the BIOS to start from the CD/DVD or USB Reader, then place as 1st device boot any of the two listed above.

If you have a relatively new BIOS, without having to enter in, may appear when you press a key is directly between the order in which we want to "boot" for example:




And if you don't have that option come always to the BIOS and seleccionaras in which start first, for example:




When you finish configuring the BIOS, we turn to the longer practical part of this Tutorial...

Steps to configure the system:


As a first step, then that the CD is recognized by the computer, the operating system logo will appear.


When you are finished setting up the initial part, we teach you in that language are going to install it.



Below, will ask us a series of requirements, which connected to the Internet is optional, and download updates also. [Pictured are marked, but the tutorial was made without the Internet]


After having checked those options, we be asked to choose one of the three options to be taught here, which we will choose something else, as shown in the image, to make the partitions.


Following the tutorial, now starts to get complicated, much attention, the SDA parameter refers to the hard drive, the parameter SDA1, it would be the partition where the Windows. Therefore we give you right click to SDA1 and choose change.


In the edition of the partition, we will insert the number of MB that we will leave for Windows (always more than the used to avoid losing data) the rest of megas obviously going to be free for the following partitions.


After the partition, it will show us a "free space" to which we give you right click and Add.



Following we will now create the area of Exchange or SWAP partition which will serve us as well as a RAM (if you have a computer with less than 2 Gb of RAM, you should always put the double of what you have real, e.g. computer tutorial I had 1 Gb of actual RAM) and also check the options marked in the image.


When you create the SWAP partition, in the rest of space free, darermos again to add.


In this part should be given special attention to the image, what we do is create the partition for Ubuntu, then with the rest of space left where it says to use as we will have to ensure and/or choose EXT4 and as a mount point from the drop-down menu put the dividing bar "/". (Single image that is not itself, as I delete it accidentally)


Now, check one by one all the points that drew the image, bearing in mind that the formatting is only for the EXT4 partition mount point. After selecting the EXT4 partition we will give to install now.


Ready, start the installation, move on to the next steps.


Steps to configure the installation:

Choose the country or city where we are


Then the keyboard language and keyboard


It will then ask us fill fields with information


We then ask an option if we want to import something Windows (in this case, do not import anything)


Finally, we will have to wait to copy system files, this can vary the delay according to the team.


Copying data Termando, give us the option of rebooting.



Final steps for initialization of the system:


Press the reset button, will leave us a black screen, where in English we say that we should remove the CD from the tray, close it and then press ENTER


Configure again the BIOS to boot from the hard disk (only on boards that require it)

At the start it will load the GRUB, which will make us a countdown to select the system you want to start.




Resolution of some issues (FAQ):


* When home prior to installing Ubuntu mouse pointer doesn't move. (Especially with wireless devices)

A: On some computers the plate does not recognize the keyboard and mouse USB, make sure you have a pass to PS2 for greater compatibility, also can happen the other way around. If you have the PS2 adapter, change it to USB.

* Get to the point of creating the partition, and when her running, stops and get a poster of error. Try to start Windows screen is black or does not start.

A: The MBR from Windows system was damaged, therefore with the XP Recovery Console run FIXBOOT and FIXMBR.

In Windows Vista or 7, we we will insert the CD of installation of the operating system, and go to repair, then select the partition where Windows is and select the last option which is the command window, and then can the following without quotes and spaces "bootsect /nt60 ALL/force/MBR"


This usually happens because no desfragmentó the disk prior to installation. See the previous installation steps.

* In the last step when I go to install now, get a poster of Error.

A: This is due to that you have not put the mount point to the EXT4 partition, look and read the step N ° 22.

* It's all installed successfully, but when home Windows, run the CHDISK and makes a check.

A: Normal to do so, commonly runs it only once and is the first time that it starts since the end of the installation of Ubuntu. Or also when we reinstall the MBR.
