PLease post your system configuration. You need about 256MB RAM to install ubuntu. Dont know about linspire. Wait for other people's reply.

About the linspire 5.0 issue.. u Simply choose the live cd option then.. at the live cd desktop there'll be an 'Install' option... install from there!! :)

^ This is uncommon. Digit must have told what kind of DVD it is giving. Live distros usually have "Live" somewhere in their name.
