I'm considering installing Ubuntu on a Tibook G4 laptop. Is there a document somewhere online that compares Ubuntu to Debian? I realize it is a build that is Debian-based, but I am speaking of if one had the option of installing Ubuntu - or - Debian builds, what the differences are.

Thx

I can only speak for myself installing Debian on PowerPC is more of a challenge then X86. It can be done if you don't mind spending time Ubutu on the other hand installs and its ready to roll everything just works.
