HI

Is this possible.?? Here is what i did:

>Downloaded wubi from here :

http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/

(because i have an ISO as Pinguy_OS_11.04.1_x86-64 )


>Disconnected from internet


>Placed both the wubi and ISO in same folder.



But the wubi throws an error on installation. I am selecting "ubuntu" in wubi from the drop down menu.. Check the screenshot below:

Only if pinguy is wubi compatible, and then they'd probably have their own download on the site.

You cant use the wubi for ubuntu to install other distros and it wont work.
Here is something which probably need some scripting to make it work
