But wubi runs like any other software that you intall, and it runs like it too, you dont need to make a partition for it because you can just install it like a game or program

@newagepirate yes but for the os you usually have to create another partion to install it on all that wubi does is install it in a way that you don't have to make another partion but jd explained that part better a few posts back.

It doesn't give you that option. So I would have to say no :(
