Hi William, This doesn't answer your original question, but I'd install minimal system and then install all the desktop environments, because minimal system is a lot easier to troubleshoot than installer environment. You then can install all the desktop environments you want with tasksel tool -- https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel KDM/GDM are smart enough to detect all desktop environment, though you'd be better off installing only one of these. https://www.google.com/search?q=kdm+select+desktop+environment&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAmoVChMI76vC4ayfxwIVAxs-Ch05KQA1&biw=1600&bih=728 In debian these days, you can install one of the desktops by just installing one of the task-desktop packages, I don't know if this method trickled down to ubuntu yet. https://packages.debian.org/jessie/task-desktop Alex.

Hi all,

With Debian, you can install all desktops (kde, gnome, xfce, etc) from ISO at first, and then choose which the desktop when you log in via gdm/kdm.

Is there a version for Ubuntu which allows you to do that? Right now, you have to choose/install different ISO for each desktop.

Or, do I have to start with "minimal install", and then install all the desktops afterwards? But, I don't know if gdm/kdm will pick up the desktops.
