How do I install Ubuntu 18.04 from iso after downloading it? [duplicate]

  • What is the proper way of creating installation media from Ubuntu iso?

  • How do I install Ubuntu?

Someone suggested that I monitor the download by clicking on the underscored down arrow on the Firefox tool bar. Thank you for that. I could see that the download failed. After some troubleshooting, I decided to look for updates to my current Ubuntu 16.04 version and by installing those, I believe, I fixed whatever problem was causing the download to fail. I tried downloading again and after about an hour it seemed to finish but that was it. I don't know if I need to extract files or save whatever I downloaded someplace where it will run.



I've now purchased Linux Format Presents: Ubuntu The Complete Guide and it's far from complete. The magazine seems to indicate that I must write the download to a disk or USB drive. Can I not just install Ubuntu 18.04 from the download? If I can, exactly how would I do that? There's no instructions for installing once you download.

    if you did download an *.iso file you need to burn it to a cd/dvd or create a usb boot device. There are plenty of tutorials on how to do that. tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-install-ubuntu-desktop#0

  • Thank you for your help. I did actually download the .iso file, however it took a good deal of searching to find it. The tutorial was great and I wrote 18.04 to my USB stick and I was able to try out the new version and I then did the "install alongside my 16.04 version." Unfortunately, when I start my computer there's no option to run 18.04 instead of 16.04. I've tried entering the bios to see if there's a way to default to 18.04 and I couldn't see anyway to do that. Seeing the behavior I just saw makes me worried that if I overwrite 16.04 I might not be able to run anything.

Quarter-circle Tiles

Image
up vote 0 down vote favorite I have $99$ identical square tiles, each with a quarter-circle drawn on it like this: [asy] size(1.5cm); draw(Arc((2,0),1,90,180),red+1); draw((0,0)--(2,0)--(2,2)--(0,2)--(0,0)); [/asy] When I arrange the tiles in a $9times 11$ rectangular grid, each with a random orientation, what is the expected value of the number of full circles I form? I think this problem has to do with finding the chance any given 2x2 square has a circle, but I can't find it. expected-value share | cite | improve this question asked Nov 20 at 15:03 6minecraftninja 1 2

build a pushdown automaton that recognizes the reverse language of a given pushdown automaton?

Image
0 I think it's similiar to NFAs. I replace the finite states of the given automaton for start-states for my new automaton. I do it with $epsilon$ -transition from the start state to the actual finite states of the given automaton. The start state of the given automaton will be my accepting(finite) state of my new one. All transitions will be reversed of course to recognize the reversed word. But how do I have to change the stack of the pushdown automaton? That's tricky. formal-languages automata context-free-grammar share | cite | improve this question edited Nov 29 '18 at 14:20 joee
