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 two 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.
- PlayStation 3 desktop CD
- For Sony PlayStation 3 systems.
(This defaults to installing Ubuntu permanently, since there is usually
not enough memory to try out the full desktop system and run the installer
at the same time. An alternative boot option to try Ubuntu without
changing your computer is available.)

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 five 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.

UltraSPARC T1 ("Niagara") processors.
- PlayStation 3 server install CD

Alternate install CD
The alternate install CD allows you to perform certain specialist
installations of Ubuntu. It provides for the following situations:
- 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.
