Hi Alice!
Try this:

http://www.efika.org/ThePegasosBook/en/V2.3_en/ThePegasosBook_V2.3_en_T4_Linux.pdf

The section about Ubuntu installation regards the 7.04 version but it's quite similar
for the others. Surely, you have to use "pegcdinst904" to start the installation and
"pegboot904" to boot Ubuntu (instead of those described on Pegasos Book).
If you read further you will notice there were problems trying to install next releases
due to a keyboard problem (not recognised). I don't know if htis is solved with 9.04...
Here you find the Ubuntu 9.04 isos:

When I installed Ubuntu on Pegasos I used the network cd (with a good amount of patience)
but I don't know if this new provided installer is for the desktop version. I didn't read any documentation.
And thanks for the tip! I really didn't know of this release!
Cheers

Hi AlicePPC

I forgot to tell you to use the installation tutorial of the Pegasos Book as Jambalah said rather than my quick and dirty instructions I posted on the AGAS-INFOCHANNEL forum.

Good luck with your installation ;)
