Installing Ubuntu 8.10

I currently run Xubuntu that was once 7.10, then upgraded to 8.04.

I’ve decided that while I’ve got nothing better to do, I’ll do a fresh install of ubuntu - the full version this time. Will also use the 64bit version, which I’ve been slightly hesitant to use before.

I remember having all sorts of major driver issues every other time I’ve installed an operating system on this computer (I have some outdated pci cards); here’s hoping that they don’t come up again.

I will keep my current xubuntu setup - and dual,tri,quad boot it (also have xp and osx86 installed). Now to try and find some room on my hdds (that are all full), looks like I’ll have to resize my current linux partition… yay, as least gparted makes it easy.
