If I understood you right, you want to run Ubuntu under Windows, right?

This Problem should be to be fixed easily, by running VMware!

Have a look at http://www.vmware.com/ .

Maybe you want to start the Server automatically, I don't really know how to realize under Windows, but I'm sure there are a lot of Man-Pages about this Smilie

While booting the Kernel in VMware in order to install Ubuntu you are able to select the Kernel mode "singleusermode" and that's it...

When you got troubles, just let me know by email me, or post here.

Greets and good Luck,

JP
