If it's an old PowerPC mac, you'll need this image:
http://gb.cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/7.04/release/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-powerpc.iso (http://gb.cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/7.04/release/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-powerpc.iso.torrent for the torrent)

If its a new intel one, you'll need this one:
http://gb.releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso
(http://gb.releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent
for the torrent)
