There used to be a lot of useful information in the Rivendell groups
mailing list archive as well; however, unless someone here downloaded a
zip of the archive and can make it available via ftp or something like
that it may not be available to you, as there was a warning that the
archive was being unavailable as of Aug 31, 2011

Hi Troy ,
some of these items are customized install packages of linux OS's that
have been modified to include the Rivendell application. They often
refer to them here as appliances.
You have already installed and set up ubuntu, there is also an option
if you go through the wiki to just add new repositories (( I believe
it used to be tryphon.org within the wiki text )software online
install package sites) that it specifies, I believe the last one was
1.7.x which is an older version but will get you started if that is
what you would like to do without having to reinstall the OS.
There are a couple of the install CD/DVD packages Rivendell 2.x.x and
Centos 5.6 and/or Centos 6.0 ( not sure if this one is available yet
or not). |There is also an older openSUSE version of linux with RD
included in it as well; but beware these are done by pros here and
have been customized for specific uses and may not include a lot of
the user friendlier GUI programs that you might read about elsewhere
when trying to understand linux. RRubuntu is a customized version
installer package developed by the chaps here that does the same thing
but installs RD 2 series with ubuntu OS. Again this is custom for
performance and a lot of linux GUI's may not be available to someone
learning linux as well.
The developers may have a script that will do the same thing and allow
you to install without redoing your ubuntu OS completely; maybe Geoff
could confirm that??
The last time I checked the online user manual, it was quite
informative, but again it was only up to date to rivendell 1.7 series
versions.

I'm with you on that one, I'd definitely go with RRAbuntu,

Would it be easier for a first time user to try RRAbuntu or the
RDappliance versions of Rivendell?
Cheers
