Portable Ubuntu

Didn't know about PUbuntu, i.e., Portable Ubuntu. Found it thru an article, downloaded Portable_Ubuntu.exe fromhttp://portableubuntu.demonccc.com.ar/. Installation is simply to double click the downloaded file. Installed on a hard disk. Worked fine! Installed on a pen drive. Kinda slow, but worked OK Here's a screen shot to show the co-existence of Windows and Ubuntu.

The top taskbar is of Ubuntu's, whereas the bottom one of Windows'. The Firefox window is of Ubuntu's, and the Internet Explorer is of Windows.

The size of the downloaded file is 438MB . 1.85GB when installed. For pendrive, I copied the folder on harddisk to a folder in pendrive and worked as it claims to be "portable". Copying in my particular pendrive took some hours.
