The 760mb ubuntu &#8220;Jaunty Jackalope&#8221; ISO took a few minutes to download and then burn onto a CDROM.  Booted that and started the install process, manually partitioning the last half of the drive into a 1gb swap and a 39gb root partition.  Away we go!<br \/>\nA nice new feature is something about migrating my windows user account and documents from the first partition.<br \/>\nThe install process took longer than the download.. about 15 minutes or so.  More news as we go on.<br \/>\nDone!<br \/>\nReboots into Grub and back into ubuntu by default,  Run the update manager to get the latest and greatest and all of the devices seem to be working: video, network, sound, etc.<br \/>\nWhat about the windows migration you ask? Well, it did bring over some documents and images&#8230; that combined with the default open office installation and GIMP, we are set to go!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Linux Ubuntu distribution was released yesterday and I just happened to have a workstation with 1\/2 a hard drive empty and waiting for something just like this.
