Description: Wubi, which is included on the Live CD, allows the distribution to be installed on a virtual Windows loop device. This requires no partitioning of a user's hard drive, allowing the installation of Ubuntu to a file on a Windows drive. This also allows the user to manage Ubuntu as a Windows program, configuring and uninstalling Wubi as another program via the Control Panel (Windows). Wubi also makes use of the Migration Assistant to import users' settings. Initially developed as an independent project for versions 7.04 and 7.10, Wubi was later merged with Ubuntu and is included on Ubuntu Live CD as of the 8.04 release.
