Hello, Sorry to insist, but an answer to this question would be greatly appreciated and helpful to my upgrade planning. Could anyone please give some more details about it? Wat are the differences between installing Hardy and Studio on top or installing Studio from scratch?

Difference between CD- and Meta-Install

I am still a relative newbie when it comes to all of this, but I thought that one of the things that really sets studio apart is the realtime kernel. If you were using the standard version of ubuntu, and simply installed all of the studio packages, wouldn't you still be running on the standard kernel? Personally, I prefer the DVD installers, because I find them clear, straight forward and simple to use. You can get the rt-kernel without problems, the package is called linux-rt. It is even recommended by the ubuntu-studio-audio package. I don't know what the differences are, maybe cory can shed some light on it?
