It accepted my Partition Table but it took 30 minutes to read and configure my hard disk with 5 other distributions.
I want to compare it with Linux Mint.
I only gave 13MB for its root since it Installs addition stuff in /var partiion.
i gave 15MB for /var partion making a total of 28GB for the full install of the System. As I believed all the additional applicantins are place outside the system. Perhaps, this may be a ploy to protect the System files. They are parallel systems and while updating the system it can install an application. In ARCH and Debian only one Package system can run. No parallel processes running together violating fundamentals of LINUX.
I think I would use it until I get a new Iso of Debian 14 is out or even sooner. I actally sacrificed my additional instsnce of Debian GNOME to install UBUNTU which was a big sacrifice.
It supports Android Studio.
Already 19 minutes gone and it is still reading my hard disk. Linux Mint took a long time partition its quota of disk space.
CachyOS OS takes only 15 minutes to install and on average ARCH based distribution take only 20 tp 22 minutes to install.
I begin to think UBUNTU seem to think it only exist in Linux Space and that is its unsuccessful hegemony.
I want to see how it organizes it GRUB Boot Loader and aslo see the extent of SNAP Software Pool. Software Pool is not exciting but the GRUB even though in dark mode did not spoil it.
It took 30 minutes to read 30 partitions.
If the disk has 60 partitions it would take one solid hour or more to install.
It takes another 10 minutes to extract its own image.
Linux kernel (image) 6.19.0.6.
Installation took 13 minutes.
Overall my reaction to UBUNTU Desktop is neutral.
It may give some nostalgia to the regular user but not me.
But for a new comer it does not give the enthusiasm that Emmabantus gives to an African Audience.
Having said that UBUNTU came from South Africa.
I do not log my computer with a /Root USER account which UBUNTU does.
After installing a few more things like AbiWord and things not available in Debian like Joplin, I change my name to an African name and my logging name is bono that comes from Central African Ape, named bonobo.
By the way, pro bono translation is for greater public good which Linux is but UBUNTU is moving away from Public Good and is becoming a commercial institute.
On the plus side UBUNTU is user friendly and its SNAP application Store has ample amount of applications.
However, it cannot beat Debian GNOME store.
