Hi
please read this,i hope its help our OS ;)
Can I use Wubi for non-Ubuntu based distributions?
It should be fairly straightforward to modify the frontend (feel free to
ask if you need any help), as shown above. Your Linux distribution must
have a mechanism to do unattended installation using a preseed file.
Wubi takes advantages of debian-installer/ubiquity presiding. If you use
a different mechanism, you will have to modify
src/wubi/installer_preseed.nsh. The make prerequisite scripts may need
to be updated as well, since they are Debian specific.
Note that upstream files (Linux-side) need to be changed since normal
distributions are generally not capable of targeting and booting (and
rebooting) off of a loop device. This task was originally accomplished
by the Lupin project, but since 7.10 a lot of functionality has been
moved upstream. Hence you might want to have a look at:
*
https://launchpad.net/lupin
*
https://launchpad.net/partman-auto-loop
*
https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools
* Other affected files: update-grub, grub-installer,
/etc/init.d/umountfs, /etc/init.d/umountroot, /etc/init/d/sendsigs
*
Relevant upstream Wubi patches

Where is the source code?
*
Wubi (Windows frontend) <https://code.launchpad.net/wubi>
*
Lupin (Linux backend) <https://code.launchpad.net/lupin>
*
Lubi (Linux frontend) <https://code.launchpad.net/lubi>
*
LVPM (Migrates virtual disks to real partitions)
<https://code.launchpad.net/lvpm>
What is the license?
The code is distributed under GPL version 2 and above
<http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html#TOC1>, however, the Linux kernel
itself is licensed under the GPL version 2 only.
