Oh, thanks. I am old to computing (started in 1957), have used Unix, and have Linux (Ubuntu) on my portable, but I am a novice at computer hardware and Linux administration.
When you look at the wiki, there is a fairly good selection of distributions to choose from.
( NO straight Ubuntu yet, but some similar )
Please do notice most are available for your choice of SD card installation or eMMC installation.
Especially if you want to install a particular OS to the eMMC, ** but keep the ability to boot from the SD card. ?
TONS of good information in the wiki.
I "SUGGEST" trying it from the SD card first before installing to your eMMC.
It runs 'ok' from an SD card just a little slower.
But you can "SEE" if you like a particular OS before permanently installing it.
LINUX = CHOICES
