Portable Ubuntu actually uses Cooperative Linux or CoLinux to Run Ubuntu Like a Real Windows Based Program. You can compile your own version or use ready made. For Open Source Private Cloud Software like Open Stack or Dev Stack we need Ubuntu on the Bare Metal, for that purpose we published articles like how to run Ubuntu Live Using External SATA Hard Disk, Run Ubuntu as Live USB or Virtualization from Pen Drive and a guide video too. But in all these cases, Ubuntu is no actually within Windows as a native program, this is what Portable Ubuntu serves the purpose.
