What are the advantages of using the Wubi installer? Can it be used for dual booting Windows XP 32-bit with Ubuntu? Also is it possible to use Wubi for installing Ubuntu 32-bit version? A step-by-step explanation would be helpful.

Hi and welcome to Ask Ubuntu!

You can follow the following steps to get a successful Ubuntu installation using Wubi

1.Setting the installer up

Wubi installer

^^That is how your Wubi Installer would look. Set up a username, install location, password, language, size and you're ready for the next step.

2.Downloading Ubuntu

Ubuntu download

This is fairly easy, and the user (i.e. you), have no role to play in this. Wubi downloads all that is necessary whilst allowing you to carry out your required tasks on Windows.

3.Completing the setup

Now that you have completed the setup, you need to reboot, do note, rebooting is necessary to complete the installation.

4.Final

This is how your screen should look post rebooting. Choose Ubuntu and you can boot into your fresh installation. Hope this helped!
