Hi. Im an Ubuntu Studio fan and to be honest, I would install it straight from a studio disk. It takes a while to install compared to most linux distros but the end result is well worth it. Ive been a linux user for years. I run Mint on my laptop and studio on my htpc and desktop.

I’m a real newbie to Ubunto and trying to figure out how to install it. I think I’m primarily interested in the Studio version but also curious about desktop and server versions and I’m not sure if I can install them all together or if that’s even possible? I’ve got a windows machine that I plan on using for Pro Tools and Ubuntu Studio. Currently Windows lives on an SSD as does my DAW software and I have two more drives, one for plugins and one for samples. I have a fifth drive that has 500GB I plan on using for Ubuntu Studio but what I’m not sure about is if I want install the desktop version first and then install the Studio version on top of it, or should I just install Ubuntu Studio and install the desktop and Server versions on another machine (or a live CD)? I think I should just install the studio version…Thanks in advance for any guidance about my quandary….</div></div> -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list <a href="mailto:Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com">Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users</a> </blockquote></div>
