Not all of a move to ubuntu is good news. Be aware that it is _not_ like Debian Stable. I tried using ubuntu to install on a AMD64 system and tried to move to Debian stable - turned into a huge mess.

Ubuntu could be a version of Debian with 'pinning' of certain packages and a few special packages to set up sane defaults and a few special packages - but that is not what it is. From what I can tell, not much that is learned in ubuntu is going directly back to Debian.

It may not be a bad choice for a first time Linux user.

I found that the iso at:
http://amd64.debian.net/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-amd64/beta2/images/netboot/mini.iso

worked better than others.
