In April I bought a used LT from a reseller which came with W7 Home and a valid key (stuck on the LT); I have no use for Windows, but don't want to lose it completely (like i might want to reinstall someday); I installed Ubuntu in a partition also on the LT and now I've decided I want the whole computer to be Ubuntu (why you ask?)
I'm going to start using the LT as my primary machine and 'side by side' installs of W7 and ubuntu do not support encrypted LVM, which is necessary for me; I need to exorcise windows from my machine.
What is the best strategy for capturing the install should I want to restore it later on? Does the 'make a recovery
DVD' allow for a clean install? It appears the DVD drive is broken. I don't really trust DVD's for long term storage so if there is a more betterer way I'd appreciate hearing about it.
Thanks.
