Thanks! The computers that I am loading this up on can't seem to handle the Edubuntu Live CD so installing Ubuntu via the text based installer and then downloading the meta-packages might be my best bet.

Does 
anyone

if 
this

And 
if 
so, 
where 
I 
can

it? 
I 
have 
gone 
through 
many 
different 
mirrors 
at 
http://www.edubuntu.org/Download 
and 
all 
the 
downloads 
they 
have 
are 
the 
Desktop 
CD, 
Server 
CD 
and 
Add-on 
CD. 
Am 
I 
missing 
something?

text

do 
you

update/transform 
a

Ubuntu 
7.10

into 
Edubuntu 
7.10?

I'm 
guessing 
that 
there 
are 
meta-packages 
called 
edubuntu-desktop,
edubuntu-server 
and 
the 
like 
that 
will 
convert 
a 
standard 
*buntu 
to 
an
edubuntu 
server 
or 
desktop.  
I'm 
running 
hardy, 
and 
it 
has 
those 
packages, 
but
try 
apt-cache 
search 
edubuntu
