Installing Edubuntu as an Add-on

This section covers installing the Edubuntu add-on in a non-LTSP environment. This type of installation is not only the easiest, but is recommended for typical usage. Later in this chapter, installing the Edubuntu add-on in an LTSP environment is covered.

To utilize the Edubuntu add-on CD for installation, you must have previously installed Ubuntu 8.04. Currently, the add-on CD only works with the Ubuntu desktop. Once Ubuntu has been installed, simply insert the add-on CD into your CD-ROM drive. You will be prompted with a pop-up dialog, letting you know that the add-on volume has been detected and asking if you would like to view or install the content. To view the content, press the Start package manager button, or to install, press the Start add-on installer.
