Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn)
These images are vulnerable to USN-612-1, a very serious flaw in the cryptographic library used to generate encryption keys. It is essential that you apply all security updates after installation before making any use of your system.
Select an image
Ubuntu is distributed on three types of images described below.
Desktop CD
The desktop CD allows you to try Ubuntu without changing your computer at all, and at your option to install it permanently later. This type of CD is what most people will want to use. You will need at least 256MB of RAM to install from this CD.
There are three images available, each for a different type of computer:
- Mac (PowerPC) and IBM-PPC (POWER5) desktop CD
- For Apple Macintosh G3, G4, and G5 computers, including iBooks and PowerBooks as well as IBM OpenPower machines.
- IA-64 desktop CD
- For Intel Itanium and Itanium 2 computers.
- PlayStation 3 desktop CD
- For Sony PlayStation 3 systems. (Note that this image has some installer bugs; a custom image is available containing fixes for the main issues.)
Server install CD
The server install CD allows you to install Ubuntu permanently on a computer for use as a server. It will not install a graphical user interface.
There are three images available, each for a different type of computer:
- Mac (PowerPC) and IBM-PPC (POWER5) server install CD
- For Apple Macintosh G3, G4, and G5 computers, including iBooks and PowerBooks as well as IBM OpenPower machines.
- IA-64 server install CD
- For Intel Itanium and Itanium 2 computers.
- PlayStation 3 server install CD
- For Sony PlayStation 3 systems.
Alternate install CD
The alternate install CD allows you to perform certain specialist installations of Ubuntu. It provides for the following situations:
- creating pre-configured OEM systems;
- setting up automated deployments;
- upgrading from older installations without network access;
- LVM and/or RAID partitioning;
- installs on systems with less than about 256MB of RAM (although note that low-memory systems may not be able to run a full desktop environment reasonably).
In the event that you encounter a bug using the alternate installer, please file a bug on the debian-installer package.
There are four images available, each for a different type of computer:
- Mac (PowerPC) and IBM-PPC (POWER5) alternate install CD
- For Apple Macintosh G3, G4, and G5 computers, including iBooks and PowerBooks as well as IBM OpenPower machines.
- IA-64 alternate install CD
- For Intel Itanium and Itanium 2 computers.
- SPARC alternate install CD
- For Sun UltraSPARC computers, including those based on the multicore UltraSPARC T1 ("Niagara") processors.
- PlayStation 3 alternate install CD
- For Sony PlayStation 3 systems. (Note that this image has some installer bugs; a custom image is available containing fixes for the main issues.)
