How to install Ubuntu Desktop?
By default PulseHeberg only offers server versions of its operating systems, but you have the possibility to simply turn a server into a desktop version.
- Connect in SSH on your VPS with an SSH client like Putty on Windows or from a terminal on Linux or MacOS.
- Once connected update your server:
undefined sudo apt update && apt upgrade -y
- When the server is up to date you can proceed to the installation of Ubuntu Desktop :
undefined sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop -y
The installation phase of Ubuntu Desktop takes about 10 to 15 minutes depending on the power of your server.
- Once the installation is complete, simply reboot your server and connect to the VNC or KVM console of your server.
- Follow the GUI configuration instructions: Keyboard type, time zone and your user ID and password.
- You then have access to the Ubuntu Desktop on your server.
