Gentlemen, I finally made it and installed the new live CD on my former office PC. I wanted to keep the Windoofs system on the first HD and was very glad to see that the installer chose the second HD for Ubuntu and automatically loaded grub2 also to go with it.
Ubuntu and LinuxCNC are up and running, just waitung for dome hardware to connect to the parport. Just a word about the German appearance: I would gladly help with translation and adaptation to German if I knew how. As it is at the moment, texts are mixed English/German which can lead to misunderstandings, and there are some typos in them (e.g., in stepconfig). So, I think it will be better for me to stick with a purely English version in order to avoid trouble. But since this can't be the purpose of multilingual efforts: can anybody tell me how to help with improving the German version?
