can someone tell me the best way to do a fresh install?
i have ubuntu 10.4 LTS Lucid amd64
insert cd install,
then go to updates - should i let it do this automatically or just address
the graphics issue first?
should i use update manager, synaptic manager or commandline? (apt-get)
what sources should i select? proposed or just the normal ones?
sorry for the noob questions, its just been the whole weekend and week of
trial and errors and no success.
to have a dual boot win/ubuntu should i do ubuntu first or win?
sony vaio vgn-fw21z

thanks
