<div dir="auto">Am on mobile so will be brief. Not trying to incite a religious war or anything. Knoppix was launched & took the web by storm in 2002. Klaus Knopper was the first guy to think & launch a live cd. He used a combo of hwsetup (from Redhat), a whole bunch of stuff from Debian. There's actually an interview of him in May 2002. <div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Ubuntu meanwhile for all their resources launched in/around mid 2005. I remember both as both also came in lfy couple months later. IIRC lfy had also shared distrowatch interview. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">So Klaus Knopper took stuff from rh, Debian & later even bsd (security tools). The above mentioned hwsetup is still used while installing Debian.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">That alone should tell you. Btw one way or another Debian did get influenced & started carrying the same tools.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Ubuntu on the other hand, has deviated a lot. How good or bad I leave to other's judgments.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Till later.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Fwiw, wayback archive machine could be used to authenticate the data, I might be wrong by few months but definitely Ubuntu came much much later.</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, 9 Aug, 2023, 10:44 pm Sudhanwa Jogalekar, <<a href="mailto:sudhanwa.com@gmail.com">sudhanwa.com@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Got Ubuntu 2204 bootable pen drive.
