Subject: Re: Friend Installs Kubuntu via wubi, no adept installed
Wubi is fantastic and works superbly in most systems and for most people.
Frankly, I've seen so many people happy with it in the last two ubuntu
releases I have a hard time seeing where anyone would say it sucks. We did
two such installs Saturday at the installfest and both went without a hitch.

Where I suspect your failure is is the people who repackaged Kubuntu. I
will try to find time to verify this but the last few days have made my
schedule quite difficult this week.

I freely admit that 3 releases ago it had trouble in a number of less common
situations.
