I have quite an old PC and wanted to install Ubuntu to replace XP. However, the DVD drive is getting old and does not recognize any DVDRs I burn to install Ubuntu. I can't install off USB (even with Plop) and the only other way I have found was a dual install but that was too slow and I was told if I deleted windows, it would take Ubuntu with it
