Before, there was an alternate DVD with text based installation.
Now, for 16.04, what alternatives do I have for a text base installation of a Ubuntu desktop system? Is it still included in the official ISO image?
hypothesis 1:
Need to install Ubuntu server. Then check what packages are installed.
Install elsewhere Ubuntu desktop, get the list of installed packages.
In the server edition: remove the packages not available for the desktop version and install all other that are present in the desktop version that are missing in the server edition.
hypothesis 2:
install the alternate DVD of version 12.04 and upgrade it to 14.04 and the to 16.04. Or could I upgrade it directly to 16.04?
What other ways do I have to do this? Hope to read some comments.
Thanks.
