I was digging through some stuff and stumbled on this. To think it’s been 15 years. Crazy what you used to be able to get a free CD of back in the day.

Nowadays you can’t even boot Ubuntu from disc. The loader is completely bugged out and you need to specify a few boot args to get it to boot within a semi reasonable amount of time. Last time I did, it took 20 minutes to load lol.
You’d have to use a DVD as well, since it’s too big to fit on CDs now XP
I think the minimal/net-installer can still fit on a CD. But then you need an internet connection.
Of course. Especially since they now include Nvidia drivers which are like 300 MB each and there’s more than one IIRC
