I am relatively new to Linux audio and am trying to decide on a distribution to use. I've been playing around with Fedora and the Planet CCRMA packages, but I am also interested in trying out Ubuntu Studio. I already have Ubuntu 7.10 on this machine, and I was wondering if I really need to go through the bother of creating a new partition and installing Ubuntu Studio from scratch, so to speak (not that it's such a terribly onerous task, but...). If I do a simple aptitude search for "ubuntustudio" while booted in Ubuntu a slew of packages come up (ubuntustudio-audio, ubuntustudio-audio-plugins, etc.). Is there any practical difference between simply installing these packages on my existing Ubuntu installation on the one hand, or going to the Ubuntu Studio website, downloading the image, and installing from there on the other? It seems as if the result would be the same in the end, but I'm not entirely sure. Thanks!
Cheers,
Daniel
