[ubuntu-uk] Using Wubi on a dual partition machine

[Keith Powell]

I would like to install Ubuntu 10.4, using Wubi, on a machine which has 
Windows7 installed. The Windows7 installation uses two partitions - the 
main one and a rescue partition. No CDs supplied!

If I understand things correctly from what I have found on the forum, 
trying to install Wubi on such a two partition machine doesn't work and 
is likely to 'wreck' the Windows installation if I try.

Please could someone comment on this?

I'm trying to get the computer's owner interested in Ubuntu, so at this 
stage 'messing about' dual booting his hard drive or fitting a second 
drive, is out of the question.

Many thanks

Keith
