Stories similar to [wubi] Can i expand space to ubuntu

hey guys

I installed ubuntu through wubi

I allocated 20GB Space for the Ubuntu.

But when i started the system.

Ubuntu became very slow.

I'm using Windows 8 (32bit) customer preview and installing WUBI Ubuntu 12,04.1. I down loaded 32 bit installer from ubuntu dot com, The wubi installer says AMD 64 xt. I had a previous 12,04 install and in the terminal typed in uname -a, it say's 64 bit. I also opened detail from the system and it read 64 bit system.

Hello!

I installed Ubuntu 12.10 via wubi. Because of some problems with the wifi connection I chose to uninstall it. I started wubi again and it said that I have to uninstall ubuntu before installing it again. So I agreed to uninstall ubuntu without installing a new version.

Hi,

I installed ubuntu 12.04 64-bit version with wubi, and when I try to compile something, it is 10 times slower than 11.10 32-bit version. If I run a simulation, I can see it lags every 0.5 seconds.

I have 64-bit cpu, and installed from a 64-bit windows7.

Is anyone experiencing the same problem? Do I need to switch back to 32-bit version with wubi?

I tried installing WUBI on a very slow computer running Windows XP. I thought that maybe it would get some extra life out of the computer, but it was so slow that I removed the WUBI and gave up. If I make a partition and install a regular version of Ubuntu to that partition will this give me the result I'm looking for, or is a slow computer just a slow computer!

I am in a very strange situation and need some help: I installed Ubuntu 11.10 through Wubi a while back so that I can use it alongside Windows 7. I was running out of space on my disk when trying to install applications.

Ok i really need help now. I've began building android from source code, but i'm using a wubi installation. And sadly, 30 GB isn't eve enough space for the first build. So, i want to migrate so i can expand my space to 50 GB. How can i expand my disk space once i migrate? Excuse me if this has been a past question. Oh yeah, I forgot to add, i want to dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu.

I'm running Windows XP with all the latest patches.

I downloaded Wubi to my computer, installed it and ran wubi. Wubi downloaded the Ubuntu (I assume it was the 12.10 release) file and extracted the Ubuntu files. Next, it asked to restart the computer.
