As far as I know there are 3 versions of edubuntu install CDs: Desktop CD (Live CD) -------------------- Has a graphics installer only (safe graphics mode doesn't work on my laptop)
Classroom Server CD ------------------- Has a text mode installer, which I have used. After installing the Server Add-on CD I have now quite the same result like install the Desktop CD. DVD Release ----------- Contains the Desktop and Server ISOs, but I couldn't download it. I guess the shipit version you mentioned should be equal to the Desktop version!? However, now I have edubuntu installed on my laptop successfully and hope that my little son will love it! :-) A hint for all german speaking people: On <http://www.jux-net.info/> you can download a Live CD ISO (based on Knoppix) with a very simple GUI for children of preschool age.
