I was digging through some stuff and stumbled on this. To think it’s been 15 years. Crazy what you used to be able to get a free CD of back in the day.

Nowadays you can’t even boot Ubuntu from disc. The loader is completely bugged out and you need to specify a few boot args to get it to boot within a semi reasonable amount of time. Last time I did, it took 20 minutes to load lol.
You’d have to use a DVD as well, since it’s too big to fit on CDs now XP
Of course. Especially since they now include Nvidia drivers which are like 300 MB each and there’s more than one IIRC
I think the minimal/net-installer can still fit on a CD. But then you need an internet connection.
