I would keep using it as a virtual machine until you get more confident within the OS.



A longer but easier/safer method of installation is to install Bootcamp then Windows, then use the Ubuntu installer in windows to share the Bootcamp space. You could also then delete the windows data and reclaim the space.



Here is a guide after getting windows into to install ubuntu:

Its for an older version but should still apply



If you want to go the true dual boot method on OSX, read up:

AND BACKUP, especially when messing with EFI
