Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger)
Select an image
Ubuntu is distributed on three types of images described below.
See the download page for
other mirrors and for DVD images.
Install CD
The install CD allows you to install Ubuntu permanently on a computer.
There are three images available, each for a different type of computer:
- PC (Intel x86) install CD
- For almost all PCs. This includes most machines with Intel/AMD/etc type
processors and almost all computers that run Microsoft Windows. Choose this
if you are at all unsure.
- Mac (PowerPC) install CD
- For Apple Macintosh G3, G4, and G5 computers, including iBooks and
PowerBooks.
- 64-bit PC (AMD64) install CD
- For computers based on the AMD64 or EM64T architecture (e.g., Athlon64,
Opteron, EM64T Xeon). It is not necessary for all (even most) processors
made by AMD -- only their 64 bit chips.
Live CD
The live CD allows you to try Ubuntu without changing your computer at all.
There are three images available, each for a different type of computer:
- PC (Intel x86) live CD
- For almost all PCs. This includes most machines with Intel/AMD/etc type
processors and almost all computers that run Microsoft Windows. Choose this
if you are at all unsure.
- Mac (PowerPC) live CD

PowerBooks.
- 64-bit PC (AMD64) live CD
