    SOLVED: Installing Kubuntu 11.04 alongside Ubuntu 10.10

    Hi there
    I'm happily using Ubuntu 10.10 but it's a bit dull and would love to return to KDE and try Kubuntu 11.04...
    Is this feasible and can I just download via the command line?
    Thanks in advance
    Cheers

    Assuming you have the space available on your HDD, sure. Setup the additional partitions - two recommended; one for root ( / ) and one for user home ( /home ).

    Plenty of guides on how to do this. What you are contemplating is a dual-boot system.
    Windows no longer obstructs my view.
    Using Kubuntu Linux since March 23, 2007.

      Thanks
      After upgrading to Gnome 11.04 and having issues with Ubiquity I decided to sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
      I then decided to dump Gnome completely and ended up mashing KDE
      I have raised a new thread for that
      (
      Thanks again
