Thread: Set Ubuntu as default OS? + Lots of confusion

hi all,

please excuse me, lots of people don't have experience this, can understand if explained clearly. in advance reading!

problem while had win7 rc, installed ubuntu 9.04 windows application using wubi , allocated minimum amount of hard drive space it, 10 gb. now, can't remember happened, through uninstallations , installations, have win7 pro , ubuntu, though ubuntu not in add/remove programs list in windows.

want ubuntu default os (first on list @ startup don't have select every boot). can select ubuntu fine, can't set default, whether it's in .lst file (set default 0, set to) i've found on forums, or in windows msconfig.

running fine, want selected first. don't know if it's app in windows or dual booted.

if matters, in ubuntu (10.04) , says disk space entire disk space, not partition. don't have separate partitions, i've found through gparted. i'm confused, i'm sure it's simpler out there. appreciate help, , i'll try answer questions! thanks!

it sounds still have wubi, uses windows boot loader , exists file inside windows ntfs partiton.

agostino: wubi wasn’t designed long-term installations. main aim let people try out ubuntu confidence. normally, users start wubi tend upgrade full installation dedicated partition @ next release cycle.

if using ubuntu lot may have reached point should think full install separate partitions.
