How to install server ubuntu 10.04 with no flash drive just hard drive??

If you are connected to a network or internet you can do a net install he network installer lets you install Ubuntu over the network. This is useful, for example, if you have an old machine with a non-bootable CD-ROM or a computer that can't run the graphical interface-based installer, either because they don't meet the minimum requirements for the live CD/DVD or because they require extra configuration before the graphical desktop can be used, or if you want to install Ubuntu on a large number of computers at once. g">

I have a single installation of Ubuntu 11.10. How do I remove it and install Windows 7? Have tried from the Windows boot disk but I dont know what my drive letter is as Ubuntu does not name it????

Hi, You can use the windows disk to over-write the ubuntu installation. Just boot from the windows disk, and when it asks where to install, tell it to format the disk and create a partition from the unpartitioned space. Windows will format the disk and you should be good to go. Keep in mind, everything on the disk will be lost.

Lexmarkx2670

You don't say which version of Linux you're using. Make sure you have CUPS 1.2 installed and then search for either: lexmark-inkjet-08-driver-1.0-1.i386.rpm.sh for RPM based systems (RedHat, CentOS) or lexmark-inkjet-08-driver-1.0-1.i386.deb.sh for Debian package type systems.

Download drivers

Hi, you will have to perform a fresh install, unless you chose the NTFS file system while installing Ubuntu. Follow these steps: 0. ...BACK UP IMPORTANT FILES... 1. Have your windows installation media handy, either on a disc or USB, you can also use factory reset on your laptop but only if you did not format your recovery partition. 2. Insert your media and reboot your computer 3. Press any key when prompted to run setup 4. If you don't see the prompt, restart your computer and press F12 to select boot options. Choose your Optical Drive or USB. 4b. Alternatively you can just change your media boot order from the Bios setup. 5. Let windows setup guide you through the install process. Format disk partitions if necessary. 6. Windows setup will run its course, it may restart your computer a few times, which is okay. 7. Once setup completes you will automatically boot into windows to complete activation and set-up user accounts. Thanks, All the best
