Part (B)- Installation of Linux OS


AIM- Installation of operating systems(Linux Operating System)
Introduction: Ubuntu is an operating system with Linux kernel based on Debian and distributed as free and open
source software. It’s one of the most popular operating systems for Desktop and Server.
Ubuntu can be installed in two ways as follows:
1. Using a DVD?
It’s easy to install Ubuntu from a DVD. Here’s what you need to do:
Put the Ubuntu DVD into the DVD-drive
Restart your computer. You should see a welcome screen prompting you to choose your language and giving you
the option to install Ubuntu or try it from the DVD.
2. Using a USB drive
The steps to install Ubuntu using USB are as follows:
Step 1: Most new computers can boot from USB. You should see a welcome screen prompting you to choose your
language and giving you the option to install Ubuntu or try it from the CD.
If your computer doesn’t automatically do so, you might need to press the F12 key to bring up the boot menu, but
be careful not to hold it down – that can cause an error message.

2: Prepare to install Ubuntu


● Plug your computer into a power source.

● You should also make sure you have enough space on your computer to install Ubuntu.
● We advise you to select Download updates while installing and Install this third-party software now.

● You should also stay connected to the internet so you can get the latest updates while you install Ubuntu.

● If you’re not connected to the internet, we’ll help you set up wireless at the next step.

Step 3: Set up wireless
If you are not connected to the internet, you will be asked to select a wireless network, if available. We advise you
to connect during the installation so we can ensure your machine is up to date. So, if you set up your wireless
network at this point, it’s worth then clicking the Back button to go back to the last screen (Preparing to install
Ubuntu) and ticking the box marked ’Download updates while installing’.
Step 4: Allocate drive space
Use the checkboxes to choose whether you’d like to Install Ubuntu alongside another operating system, delete
your existing operating system and replace it with Ubuntu, or — if you’re an advanced user — choose the
’Something else’ option.

Step 5: Begin the installation


Depending on your previous selections, you can now verify that you have chosen the way in which you would like
to install Ubuntu. The installation process will begin when you click the Install button.
Ubuntu needs about 4.5 GB to install, so add a few extra GB to allow for your files.
