Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog)
Select an image
Ubuntu is distributed on two types of images described below.
Install CD
The install CD allows you to install Ubuntu permanently on a computer. There are three images available, each for a different type of computer:
- Intel x86 install CD
- For almost all PCs. This includes most machines with Intel/AMD/etc type processors and almost all computers that run Microsoft Windows. Choose this if you are at all unsure.
- PowerPC install CD
- For Apple Macintosh G3, G4, and G5 computers, including iBooks and PowerBooks.
- AMD64 install CD
- For computers based on the AMD64 or EM64T architecture (e.g., Athlon64, Opteron, EM64T Xeon). It is not necessary for all (even most) processors made by AMD -- only their 64 bit chips.
Live CD
The live CD allows you to try Ubuntu without changing your computer at all. There are three images available, each for a different type of computer:
- 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. Choose this if you are at all unsure.
- PowerPC live CD
- For Apple Macintosh G3, G4, and G5 computers, including iBooks and PowerBooks.
- AMD64 live CD
- For computers based on the AMD64 or EM64T architecture (e.g., Athlon64, Opteron, EM64T Xeon). It is not necessary for all (even most) processors made by AMD -- only their 64 bit chips.
