i got the partiton ready and everything p.s THIS IS A LIVE CD
PLEASE HELP
THANKS!
You can say if you think its in the wrong catagory if you tell me which catagory to put it in
you saidUse Wubi instead. It will download an install what you need. The live CD installer is to be used in a linux setup an will not work from windows.

(Installs Ubuntu)
(intalls ubuntu) IM NOT installing ubuntu!
im installing suse will it still work
i have vista installed, and I am trying to install linux so i can duel boot vista and Ubuntu. When im using the disk partitioner on the ubuntu live cd, it tells me I don’t have enough space (I clearly do though)

I recently installed Ubuntu Linux and have a duel boot with my Windows XP. I had never used Linux before and fell in LOVE. I would make a complete transition, but unfortunately, my sound card will not work. I have run my Live CD on other machines and (wouldn’t you know it) the only computer that the sound won’t work on is my Sony Vaio. I consider myself a very computer savvy person, but I am all new to Linux. So please keep the instructions “idiot-friendly”. My sound card is a Intel 82801DB-ICH4 (Alas Mixer). I have a Sony Vaio PCG-4C1L. Oh, just so everyone is aware, I have tried ajusting advanced volume control and all of the articles on the Ubuntu homepage using the search key “no sound sony vaio”.
I am running version 8.04. Also, my system is a laptop (speakers are built in)
