Edubuntu is distributed on three types of images described below.
Live CD
The live CD allows you to try Edubuntu without changing your computer at all, and at your option to install it permanently later.
There are three images available, each for a different type of computer:
- PC (Intel x86) live CD
- For almost all PCs. This includes most machines with Intel/AMD/etc type processors and almost all computers that run Microsoft Windows, as well as newer Apple Macintosh systems based on Intel processors. Choose this if you are at all unsure.
- 64-bit PC (AMD64) live CD
- Choose this to take full advantage of computers based on the AMD64 or EM64T architecture (e.g., Athlon64, Opteron, EM64T Xeon, Core 2). If you have a non-64-bit processor made by AMD, or if you need full support for 32-bit code, use the Intel x86 images instead.
- Mac (PowerPC) and IBM-PPC (POWER5) live CD
- For Apple Macintosh G3, G4, and G5 computers, including iBooks and PowerBooks as well as IBM OpenPower machines.
