    I was wondering if anyone could tell me the answer to my query. I've installed VirtualBox, and intend to try out Ubuntu within it, just to play with. I was wondering, can I delete the Ubuntu .iso file after installation in VB, or does it need to be kept in it's current location for some reason? Space is not a premium, but I like to keep my PC lean, and thus the question.

    Wasn't sure if this belonged here or in Linux, but I figured here's more pertinent.

    After installing Ubuntu you don't ned ISO file any more, so you can delete it if you don't need it for some other reason.
