Returning to traditional graphical environment layout Once again, the boot prompt is unchanged from previous Xubuntu editions, enabling users to start the live environment with default options and without installing it, boot an existing operating system, run a memory test, check the DVD media for defects, or directly install the distribution (not recommended). It is still distributed as Live DVD ISO images that are getting bigger and bigger with each new release, closing fast to 1GB in size, which means that they can only be deployed on DVD discs or USB flash drives of 1GB or higher capacity. The final release will be available for download sometime in October 2014. Still distributed as Live DVD ISO images for 64-bit and 32-bit architecturesįirst of all, it is very important to mention that Xubuntu 14.10 is now in heavy development, which means that it should not be installed on production machines. It is an open source and freely distributed project that tries to support a wider range of computers than the main Ubuntu release. Welcome to the Utopic Unicorn edition of the Xubuntu Linux operating system.
