I installed ubuntu on my dad's laptop a year ago and I wanted to install another ubuntu based distro on his laptop . He has no cds or dvds so I thought about making partition that would pretty much be a copy of the install cd. I did the same thing on windows 7 and thanks to easyBCD it wasn't hard to pull off. So far I tried to create a 1 gig partition with the EXT4 filesystem and extracted the contents of the iso onto that partition.
Do any of you guys know how I could make this work , or any alternative simple solutions?
