Re: [orca-list] what distro for orca?

Hi Andrea,

Actually, there are two accessible ways to install Ubuntu. The first is 
to boot the Ubuntu 12 live CD, and when you here the bongo drumbs, press 
control+s for speech, and then tab to the install release button to 
install it to a free partition on your hard drive. The second, which you 
are talking about is called Wubi. Its a standard Win32 application which 
you run using Jaws, Window-Eyes, NVDA, etc and when its done downloading 
and installing the files into a Windows swap partition you have to 
shutdown and reboot for it to finish installation. Its also accessible, 
but you are limited to a 30 GB swap file instead of an actual Linux 
partition, and runs a bit slower than a regular install. However, Wubi 
is great for people who just want to try Linux without having to 
repartition the drive etc.
