Wubi

How to continue installing Ubuntu setup if internet link breaks?

Asked by Rohit Talekar

Hi,
I have downloaded Wubi.exe from Ubuntu official website.
i am trying to use Ubuntu 11.04 as an application on Windows.
I have a bit unreliable internet with Max speed of 512kbps.
After executing Wubi file, the installer starts downloading the i386 ISO file.
As my internet connection is unreliable, the installation process stops as my internet connection goes blank!
As of now, i have been able to download only 300 Mb part of i386 ISO file,
How can I continue downloading the remaining part of ISO file if installation stops?
I have a complete version of Ubuntu 9.10 ISO file on my hardisk.
Can 9.10 version be used as an application?

Regards,
Rohit

Use a separate bittorrent client to download it: http://releases.ubuntu.com/11.04/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent

That's the easiest option as it will resume and probably will be faster as well. Then place the download ISO file into the same folder as wubi.exe and run wubi again. It will pick up and use the ISO you downloaded.

The installer tried to download the latest version.
also while downloading normally today, an error named permission denied occured,
the log entries are:

Wubi.exe is release specific. You have to download the 9.10 one...
however that is no longer supported.

Hi,
Thanks for your advice,
I downloaded Ubuntu and successfully installed it.
