The Future Of Computing is Ubuntu Phone

As we are know, in the beginning of January 2013. Canonical announce their new project called Ubuntu Phone.

Fix windows's MBR without installation Disk using linux!!!

Bismillahirohmanirrohim... Assalamualaykum, When I was trying out new ubuntu 12.04. The installation progress went wrong and then freeze. After a couple of minutes the progress still the same. Before installing 12.04, my system was running ubuntu 11.04 dualboot (windows 7).

But alas, my DVD-RW was busted long time ago and I haven't fix it or intent to fix it. The only thing I have is Ubuntu USB Thumbdrive.
