The first part may seem tricky, but if you've done it once it's quite easy. The second part is a piece of cake. You can use the official instructions or the ones provided by SparkFun. If you have an SD card you can install the Linux kernel with PhoenixCard. If you don't have an SD card install the kernel with LiveSuit.
Once you've installed the Linux kernel each time you boot up the pcDuino it will go into update mode. If you haven't inserted your SD card of Flash drive with the unpacked Ubuntu files do it now and you should get this message(see image below):
If you've done everything as instructed and it still doesn't want to install Ubuntu you might have encountered the same problem I have - wrong file system. My Flash drive had NTFS and Linux couldn't see the files on the Flash drive because of it. Once I formated the Flash drive to FAT32 everything went smoothly.
If you have any questions leave them as a comment.
