Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx)

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) Daily Build

Select an image

Ubuntu is distributed on two types of images described below.

UEC image

The Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud image can be run on your personal Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud, or modified, rebundled and uploaded to Amazon EC2. For further instruction on setting up a personal Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud, see Getting Started with Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud

There are two images available, each for a different type of computer:

32-bit UEC image
For almost all PCs. This includes most machines with Intel/AMD/etc type processors and almost all computers that run Microsoft Windows, as well as newer Apple Macintosh systems based on Intel processors. Choose this if you are at all unsure.
64-bit UEC image
Choose this to take full advantage of computers based on the AMD64 or EM64T architecture (e.g., Athlon64, Opteron, EM64T Xeon, Core 2). If you have a non-64-bit processor made by AMD, or if you need full support for 32-bit code, use the Intel x86 images instead.

Amazon EC2 Published AMIs

The images have been published to Amazon EC2, and can be used immediately with no need to download anything. See the table below for the AMI ids. For further instruction on getting started with Amazon EC2, see the EC2 Starters Guide.
