Ubuntu :: Uninstall On A Computer With Windows 98?


I admit it, Ubuntu is a good system, but I only installed it onto a Windows 98 because I wanted it to connect with a newer computer. It didn't work, and now I have to stand by so I can select my version. How can I remove Ubuntu now?

Ubuntu :: Install Windows Xp On Computer In Virtual Machine - Watch Netflix On Computer
so here's my problem. I am trying to install windows xp on my computer in virtual machine so i can watch netflix on my computer. The disk will not start up, if I restart and try to boot from load i just sits there and says boot from cd. The disk drive plays music cd's fine, so i dont really know what the issue is.

I dont know that much aboutut ubuntu. a tech friend put it on hard drive he gave me after mine crashed. also i should ad that i took the disk to someone else's house that haswidnows installed and the disk worked just fine, so its not a disk problem

Ubuntu :: Uninstall Windows 7 Within 11.04
I've been using Ubuntu for atleast 8 months now but today I bought a new laptop and I followed a thread that said to install gpartition and delete all the partitions that said "FAT32" and "nfts" or something but all but one had those and it was called "unallocated" with no memory. It was easier on 10.10 because it asked if I wanted to fully erase Windows. How do I do this safely and JUST KEEP UBUNTU 11.04 on my laptop?

General :: Moving Data From Computer To Windows Computer
I have a situation where I am trying to move some data from a Linux computer to a Windows computer. In all there is 700GB of data to move in about 1.5 million files, so I don't want to do this over the network.My first thought was to use an external USB hard drive and create an NTFS partition and copy the files from the linux computer to mount on the Windows computer. After 4 days of copying without completion I abandoned that idea. I thought the NTFS might be slowing it down, so I created an EXT3 partition. 4 Days later it was still copying. I did some calculations and there was no way the USB 2.0 connection was that slow. I then used ddrescue and cloned the drive to be copied overnight and it took about 12 hours. i was able to mount the USB drive under Linux and access the files appropriately. The only problem is that I can not access that USB drive on my Windows 7 computer. I have tried Explore2fs, DiskInternals Linux Reader, and Ext2 Installable File System For Windows, but none of them is recognizing the external drive.

Ubuntu :: Uninstall To Install Windows ?
I installed Linux since I really enjoy the OS, alot more fun than Windows, but the problem is that I cant play any game when I'm bored. So I'm going to install Windows and then install Linux alongside again,

But to do that I need to uninstall Ubuntu, so my question is, how do I do that? I tried to just boot from the Windows CD, but after a while it says that it cant proceed caused by an error that says that my CD/DVD-Rom or my USB is failing or that is isin't connected, cant really remember. But my DVD-rom works perfectly when not running the Windows-CD.

Is this problem caused by that my HDD got EXT4 instead of NTFS?

Ubuntu :: Uninstall - Partition Isn't Recognized By Windows
I have a computer which I upgraded to Windows 7. But when I upgraded it, I forgot about the Ubuntu Install Inside Windows partition I had, and when my disc was formatted, it deleted Ubuntu but not the partition. The partition isn't recognized by Windows AT ALL, but when I start it up the boot menu still gives me an option to boot into Ubuntu.

Ubuntu :: Uninstall And GRUB By Installing Windows 7?
I have my system set up to dual boot Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala and Windows XP Pro, using GRUB 2 (1.97~beta4) as the boot loader. I want to remove Ubuntu and GRUB 2 from the system and install Windows 7 in a dual boot environment with Windows XP. My concern is to be sure that in the process of removing Ubuntu I do not make my system unbootable by removing or otherwise screwing up GRUB without replacing it with the Windows boot loader.

I read a suggestion saying that the most straightforward way to do what I want is to simply install Windows 7 and, during the install process, select my current Ubuntu ext3 partition as the Windows 7 system partition. The suggestion said the Windows 7 install process would overwrite the MBR with the Windows boot loader, effectively uninstalling GRUB 2. The Windows boot loader will find the existing XP installation and give me a choice between Windows 7 and XP at boot time. Does that scenario sound right? Would it work the way I have described it? (I know I would no longer have Ubuntu. That is OK; I intend to reinstall it later.)

For what it is worth, here is my current partition layout:

/dev/hda - 320 GiB internal hard drive
/dev/hda1 - 37.26 GiB ntfs boot (Windows XP)
/dev/hda2 - 18.63 GiB ext3 (Ubuntu 9.10 /root)
/dev/hda3 - 1.69 GiB linux-swap
/dev/hda4 - 240.51 GiB extended

[Code]...

General :: How To Uninstall Kubuntu And Windows
Recently I installed Ubuntu parallel to windows, since I still have some projects to finish using windows software. While exploring the world of Ubuntu I came across Kubuntu, which looked very nice. Now I made the mistake to download the installation disk and install Kubuntu parallel to Ubuntu and Windows. I played around with Kubuntu for a while, it looks really nice but I decided to stick to Ubuntu. So now I would like to remove Kubuntu, but I don't know how. The same goes for Windows, as soon as I have finished my projects with windows software. I would like to remove it as well, so that finally my computer runs only on Ubuntu.

Ubuntu :: Cannot Uninstall Firefox Nor Can Uninstall Chromium
I cannot uninstall Firefox, nor can I uninstall Chromium; one always stays if the other is uninstalled. For example, if I remove Firefox, Chromium will appear in its place and vice versa. This has got to be one of the weirdest bugs I've ever seen on Ubuntu! So, how can I uninstall both web browsers?
