Yes, it enables you to boot, and one of the choices, (I think) is try Ubuntu without affecting your computer. > Even if you don't have that choice, you will boot into an Ubuntu system, but it is running completely from the CD.

You were all peaceable now. You didn't by any chance go and lose that pesky soul again, did you? Angel: Don't push me, boy. Riley: Now what possibly could've happened with Buffy that would make you lose your soul? Angel: That'd be between me and her. Riley: Where do you think you're going? Angel: Going to see an old girlfriend. ------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from this list, please email [email protected] & you will be removed.Yahoo!
