Help: Wubi with windows 7
Hi all
Since I´m getting more and more into linux I got the idea that I should start dualbooting on the family laptop.
First I downloaded wubi to dualboot Ubuntu with Windows 7 home premium on an Acer Aspire laptop.
Then I restarted and looked forward for Ubuntu but the screen is almost black.
I can barely see some ad about "excellent apps" but not enough to be able to do anything about it.
Beside being a newbie and computerlexic, what´s my issue?
Thanks in advance!

pbuilder-dist-simple
PBUILDER-DIST-SIMPLE(1) General Commands Manual PBUILDER-DIST-SIMPLE(1)
NAME
pbuilder-dist-simple - simple multi-release pbuilder wrapper
SYNOPSIS
pbuilder-<dist> operation [...]
DESCRIPTION
pbuilder-dist-simple is a wrapper that makes it easy to use pbuilder with chroots for many different Ubuntu distributions. If you need
more features than pbuilder-dist-simple provides, have a look at pbuilder-dist(1).
USAGE
Create one symlink to pbuilder-dist-simple for each distribution for which you want a build environment, naming them like "pbuilder-lucid",
"pbuilder-natty", etc.
Replace operation with the action you want pbuilder-dist-simple to do (create, update, build, clean, login or execute).
EXAMPLES
pbuilder-natty create
Creates a pbuilder environment for Ubuntu Natty.
pbuilder-lucid update
Updates an existing Ubuntu Lucid environment.
pbuilder-lucid build ./sample_1.0-0ubuntu1.dsc
Builds the specified package on an already existing Ubuntu Lucid environment.
FILES
By default, pbuilder-dist-simple will store all the files it generates in ~/pbuilder/. This can be changed by modifying the BASE_DIR value
on the top of the script to any other directory you want. If the directory doesn't exit, it will be created at runtime.
