Hello, Andy. Oops! I install "ubuntu-desktop" + "linux-server", not "ubuntu-server": There was discussion about an "ubuntu-server" metapackage, but it never made it into the repositories as an official package... >> The only real difference is the kernel you run and if you want LAMP. >> >> There is a list of the 'server' packages that will still be supported: >> >> http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/dapper/supported.txt > > What about for hardy? How is the above list generated? No idea: I'm still running 6.06 LTS on some of our servers, and I was worried about the recent EOL statement for Dapper on the desktop. I now just install the desktop edition from CDROM, then add what I need: aptitude install linux-server openssh-server aptitude install mysql-server apache2 libapache2-mod-php5 aptitude install nfs-kernel-server Boot the server kernel, and I've got a LAMP + NFS server + GUI.
