Preparing the installation media
Windows 7/8
USB/Flash Drives
For a GUI (Graphic User Interface) we use UNetBootin.
You can use UNetBootin to download the ISO(image file) for you or download it though Get Kubuntu.
If you choose the 'Diskimage' option you use the button to select your downloaded ISO. Then click .
DVD
The recommended tool to use is ImgBurn There is a excellent how-to on the ImgBurn forums by the admin here.
Existing Kubuntu Install
USB/Flash Drives
For a GUI (Graphic User Interface) we use UNetBootin.
You can use UNetBootin to download the ISO(image file) for you or download it though Get Kubuntu.
Using the command line we use the 'dd' command.
Insert your USB drive into your computer and find out the drive allocated to it using:
lsblk
Then format the USB drive with the 'dd' command:
sudo dd if=Downloads/kubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdX
DVD
For making a DVD we recommend the awesome KDE tool K3b
Look for , click it then pick from the list of actions.
Then you select the image (iso) that you want to burn to the DVD from your computer.

KDE based
If your using a Linux Distribution that uses KDE you can follow the Kubuntu instructions as K3b is provided in every KDE based Distro (Distribution).
Install Process
First, you will need to download Kubuntu. See Get Kubuntu
When the installer starts you will see these options:
- Try out Kubuntu without changing anything on your computer
- Install Kubuntu on your computer.
Prepare
For the best result, ensure that:
- Your computer has enough room for Kubuntu and your data - your songs, pictures, videos, and documents.
- Your computer is connected to the Internet so that you can download updates and third-party software as Kubuntu is installing.
includes software that either does not follow the Open Source model or the Ubuntu Philosophy, but is safe for use on your system.
will ensure that you have the latest bug and security fixes included and applied once the installation is complete.
Disk Setup
This is where you choose how to organize your hard drive. This step is the most complicated and consequential in the entire install process, so take your time.
The following sections are some possible installation scenarios you might choose. Each of these choices points to a page or series of pages with more details. For each option (except Manual), the installer asks which hard drive to use. After choosing, you will see a before and after layout on that hard drive.
Resize
This will resize the partitions for you and install Kubuntu on the free space. With this option you can create what is called a dual-boot and choose which OS to boot into at startup.
Use entire disk
In this scenario the installer will create two(2) partitions on your hard drive. One(1) for the root, home, and everything else and one(1) for the swap.

Manual
When using to set up your system as you would like it, keep these thoughts in mind:
- The root ( / ) directory needs at least 25 GBs of space.
- The home ( /home ) directory needs as much space as you will need for your files, music, pictures and documents. So it is best to use the remaining space for the home partition, unless you have going to dual boot.
- Swap space of at least half of the available RAM is recommended. For instance, with 8 GBs, make the swap with at least 4 GBs.
For more detailed information regarding the Disk Setup of a linux system you can check the DiskSpace page.
Timezone
During this step you get to pick the Region where you live and then the Timezone of the location in that Region. An example would be that I live in New York, so my Region is North America and my Timezone is New York.
Keyboard
This is the step that will set up your keyboard's language and, if the language has it, a different version of the language. For example, there is a Cherokee American English setting as well as different setups with special keys used in certain countries; in Kubuntu we try to make the system easy for everyone!
User Info
At this step of the installation you will be putting in user information like your name, username, and password. The password will be your key to logging into your new installation as well as installing new software, updating your system, and more, so keep it written down somewhere!
