I booted Ubuntu using an external hard drive. Is it possible to install it on the same hard-drive without unplugging or turning it off? I only have one working USB port and the internal PC hard-drive is dead.
Tell me more

You need to partion your hardrive first. Then install the live environment on one half. When you boot into the installer you can now install on the other half. |

First, you can use GParted to partition your harddisk(you can shrink your partition without losing your data and then make another partition). When you have 2 partition then you can install Ubuntu on the other partition even when you are booting from the first. |
