Installing Kubuntu with Wubi in PC already have Ubuntu with Wubi

[prabath_fun]

Hi,
I have PC with Ubuntu 8.04 installded with Wubi. I want to install Kubuntu 8.04 also with wubi. That is, need to install kubuntu also with Virtual disk, so that, I can remove kubuntu or ubuntu latter easily. Also, both Ubuntu and Kubuntu applications will not mix up.
Please show me the directions to do so.

Re: Installing Kubuntu with Wubi in PC already have Ubuntu with Wubi

Hi nilSA,
The command u have suggested will install kde-desktop in Ubuntu itself. I am not looking for this.
I need to install kubuntu with Wubi in my PC. But, thing is, already, I have Ubuntu installed with wubi. By using wubi again for Kubuntu, whether It will mess Ubuntu's installation?, I want to know.
This type of installation I am looking for
1. to avoid, menus loaded/crowded with both GDE and KDE applications.
2. If I want to remove Kubuntu or Ubuntu, It will be very easy.
3. I dont have high speed Internet connection (My net connection goes max 3Kbps) and want to use Kubuntu Live CD through which I cannot install Kde-desktop in Ubuntu.
Please any one knows how to use Wubi again, update through this thread.

With advanced Thanks,
Prabath

Hi nilSA,

1. to avoid, menus loaded/crowded with both GDE and KDE applications.

Can be done this way (near the bottom):

2. If I want to remove Kubuntu or Ubuntu, It will be very easy.

sudo remov kde-desktop
sudo autoremove
sudo clean

(Thel last two might be unnecessary, but better safe than sorry.)

3. I dont have high speed Internet connection (My net connection goes max 3Kbps) and want to use Kubuntu Live CD through which I cannot install Kde-desktop in Ubuntu.

You can acheive this by adding in Adept manager the CD as repository.

Hi,
I have Live CD of Kubuntu 8.04. I came to know that, it cannot be used for installing kde-desktop in Ubuntu8.04.
Is there any way to get .deb package of kde-desktop from installded Kubuntu8.04.

Please update me.

With thanks,
