Is there a way to install ubuntu to Windows ME without a USB drive or burning a disk?
-
I have Windows ME on a PC that I want to install Ubuntu to but i don't have a CD burner and at present don't have access to a USB drive. If i had to i could get a USB drive but i was hoping to avoid that. I did a search on google and the most relevant information i could find was at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows However when i try to do "The Netboot Approach" in step 2 it tells me to "Download linux and initrd.gz from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/ubuntu-installer/i386/ " but when i click the link to do this i get a "the requested URL was not found" message. Could someone please tell me where i can find linux and initrd.gz or tell me another way that i can go about installing Ubuntu without a CD or USB drive? Thanks for any help in advance.

Answer:
All I can think of is make a new partition on the hard drive, make it bootable, put the linux install on there. Or.. just get a usb drive.
