Ubuntu Plans to Ditch its ‘Minimal’ Install Option Because, Er… We’re Not Sure

The same ISO also delivers a ‘full installation’ mode stacked with a diverse set of software – the default, recommended option. So naturally, having added a feature a ton of people enjoy, Ubuntu is, er, removing it. They plan a new “unified default install” that, from the sounds of things, will offer a “choose your own apps”
