Linux Mint is an increasingly popular distribution of Linux, and many users have found it more user friendly and convenient than other versions. Mint is based on Ubuntu, and as such includes an excellent installer that lets you install it directly from Windows. You install it just like a standard Windows program, and can uninstall it from Command Prompt. The installer is only available in a ISO disk image file, though, so it can still be difficult to install on a computer without a CD/DVD drive such as a netbook. But, with a little trick, you can use the Windows installer for Mint on any PC, no DVD drive required!
Linux Mint是Linux越来越流行的发行版,许多用户发现它比其他版本更加用户友好和方便。 Mint基于Ubuntu,因此包括出色的安装程序,可让您直接从Windows安装它。 您可以像安装标准Windows程序一样安装它,也可以从命令提示符处将其卸载。 但是,该安装程序仅在ISO磁盘映像文件中可用,因此,在没有CD / DVD驱动器(如上网本)的计算机上安装该程序仍然很困难。 但是,您可以通过一点技巧,在任何PC上使用Windows安装程序安装Mint,而无需DVD驱动器!
