Four months ago my hard disk died—it had three partitions. COD—head crash—a term used when the read-write head scratches on the surface of the hard disk, thereby causing hard disk failure.
I was not able to boot Windows XP. Fortunately, I had Ubuntu - Hardy Heron installed in a different partition inside Windows and I was able to access and copy all my XP files to an external hard drive. This Ubuntu had been there sitting unused, never crossed my mind that one day it would be of service.
So I bought a new 500GB hard drive and installed Windows XP; and then installed Lucid Lynx Ubuntu on an 80GB external hard drive.
This time I want to get serious on Ubuntu—I want to see how to configure it and how to install software on it. From now on, I will document my Ubuntu experience by posting them on this blog.
