WUBI installed Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS with xRDP and X11RDP[]

1. Install Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS with WUBI.[]

2. Dual-Boot the WUBI installed Ubuntu and configure it
as your needs. You should disable all visual effects
and choose a one color background.
[]

4. Install the xRDP package with Synaptics.[]

5. Download and install the version 0.6 DEB packages for xRDP and X11RDP
(thanks to Gustavo Homem, Angulo Solid and Jay Sorg for the DEB packages,
look at Xrdp-devel) from:
[]

http://server1.xrdp.org/xrdp/v0.6/[]

6. Edit as root user the /etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini file, and
change the standard RDP port from 3389 into 3390.
[]

7. Edit as root user the /etc/fstab file and add the
lines for the coLinux drives:
[]

# Mount points under coLinux
/dev/cobd0 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/cobd1 none swap sw 0 0
[]

8. Create at the user home directory an empty .Xauthority
file.
[]

9. As user open a terminal and do the following commands:[]

touch ~/.Xauthority
chmod 600 ~/.Xauthority
[]

10. Use the Ubuntu restart and boot the PC into Windows.[]

11. Install coLinux with the slirp connection, but without
downloading a coLinux image and build a config file for
coLinux as:
[]

kernel=vmlinux
mem=256
cobd0=v:\ubuntu\disks\root.disk
cobd1=v:\ubuntu\disks\swap.disk
root=/dev/cobd0 noplymouth text
eth0=slirp,00:FF:75:39:D3:C1,tcp:3390:3390
[]

The drive and path (v:\ubuntu\disks) points to the WUBI
installed disk images. The boot paramter noplymouth and
text are important to start Ubuntu with coLinux.
[]

12. Just you can install the coLinux driver and start coLinux
with the coLinux config file.
[]


13. Run the Microsoft Remote-Dektop-Connection (mstsc.exe)
and use as the computer name/address the 127.0.0.1:3390
IP-address with the RDP port, the Ubuntu user name as
user/login name and the Ubuntu user password for the
connection.
[]

That's all to get a with WUBI installed dual-bootable Ubuntu
installation running with coLinux. You can use both to run
Ubuntu, dual-booting or coLinux with the same disk images!
