Installing Ubuntu Linux is a relatively straightforward process. Here are the general steps you can follow:
- Download the Ubuntu ISO: Go to the official Ubuntu website and download the ISO file for the version of Ubuntu you want to install.
- Create a bootable USB drive or DVD: You can create a bootable USB drive or DVD using software like Etcher, Rufus, or Unetbootin.
- Insert the bootable USB or DVD: Insert the bootable USB or DVD into the computer you want to install Ubuntu on.
- Boot from the USB or DVD: Restart your computer and enter the boot menu by pressing the appropriate key (such as F2 or F12) during the boot process. Select the USB or DVD drive as the boot device and hit enter.
- Begin the Ubuntu installation process: Once you’ve successfully booted into the Ubuntu installation environment, you can begin the installation process by following the prompts on the screen.
- Choose installation type: During the installation process, you will be prompted to choose the installation type. You can choose to erase everything on the hard drive and install Ubuntu, or you can choose to install Ubuntu alongside an existing operating system.
- Create user account: Finally, you will be prompted to create a user account for Ubuntu. You’ll need to choose a username and password, and then the installation will complete.
That’s it! After the installation is complete, you’ll be able to log in to your new Ubuntu Linux system.
