Hi Santosh
are u referring to the livecd like feature, where in u first get the feel of ubuntu and then get to install it???
He is talking about the new installer which got released in 8.04. Its the wubi installer which is part of 8.04 which allows you to install Ubuntu as an application inside windows.

Hi Guys,
Recently one of my friend demonstrated the New Ubuntu (8) Installation
feature for Windoz people, who wants to switch to GNU/Linux,
as most people scared of installing GNU/Linux on there Win Box as a dual
boot.
The Ubuntu installer was started from Windoz env, and after 1st reboot it
took the normal installation procedure.
But there is no grub, windoz manage it.
Still I didn't upgraded my F8 box with F9, so not sure F9 also available
the same feature.
Regards, Danishka

But thats only at the time you start the system you dont invoke it from windows. i guess you were asking about the installer getting invoked from windows environment . If yes then fedora does not have this as of now . More info on how Ubuntu does this http://wubi-installer.org/
