The user wants to (re-)install Ubuntu on his Dell mini (that hasn't a CDRom drive). Suggest creating a USB startup disk.

Hi,
You can download the Ubuntu operating system from here:
http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download-netbook

On that page is also a link to the page (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromImgFiles) where you can learn how to transform the downloaded Ubuntu to a USB Stick from where you can install from scratch.

Can you help with this problem?
