Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus) Installation Guide

Here, we already have a guided installation procedure on the next iteration of the world’s most popular free operating system – Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

Canonical currently released the first beta images of Ubuntu 16.04; however, there’s no standard Unity flavor at this time and sadly, we won’t be seeing it until the 24th of March – which is the release date for beta 2 – and we should see stable builds emerging in by April 21st – followed by subsequent release candidates.

If you’re worried on how this guide will work with the first point release, worry no more as the installation procedure hasn’t changed so much from the previous releases so if you are familiar with the installation of previously released Ubuntu versions, then you shouldn’t find it too hard breezing through with this one. Secondly, if you’re completely new to Linux or it’s your first time trying Ubuntu, this guide should help you go through with the installation process too.
