Re: [orca-list] Ubuntu Windows installer, now with accessibility!

This sounds very interesting.  What happens with a bootloader though, or
does the system just run in a virtual machine under windows?

Also, how does the disk performance   compare to a standard instaallation?

Many thanks for your work on the installer, its very much apreciated.

Hi all
You may or may not have heard about the windows installer that is available
on the Ubuntu live CD. This installer allows you to install Ubuntu onto a
virtual disk, within your Windows installation, so you don't have to worry
about setting asside dedicated hard disk space to install Ubuntu.

As of now, the windows installer offers accessibility options to the user.
The accessibility options that are available are the same as what is
available from the live CD boot menu, which means you can set up the windows
installer, choosing the accessibility profile you want. During the install,
and on the final installed system, accessibility will be enabled according
to the settings of the accessibility profile you have chosen.

Please spread the word about this, as this is a great way to get new users
involved with trying out Ubuntu.

Luke
