# How to install Ubuntu 22.04

This document includes some useful links for installing Ubuntu 22.04 on a workstation or server:

- [Download](https://releases.ubuntu.com/jammy/) the official Ubuntu 22.04 desktop image.
- Follow the official Ubuntu Desktop [installation guide](https://documentation.ubuntu.com/desktop/en/latest/tutorial/install-ubuntu-desktop/).

> NavVis Desktop Processing software only supports the amd64 architecture and not the ARM architecture. Make sure the image you downloaded is marked with amd64: e.g. ubuntu-22.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso.

## Installation tips

### Creating a Bootable USB Drive

A USB drive with at least 12GB or more is required.

- Creating from [Ubuntu](https://documentation.ubuntu.com/desktop/en/latest/tutorial/install-ubuntu-desktop/).
- Creating from [Windows](https://documentation.ubuntu.com/desktop/en/latest/how-to/create-a-bootable-usb-stick/?_gl=1*21z31x*_gcl_au*MTA4MTAxMjEwMy4xNzczODQ5MzM5#on-windows).
- Creating from [MacOS](https://documentation.ubuntu.com/desktop/en/latest/how-to/create-a-bootable-usb-stick/?_gl=1*21z31x*_gcl_au*MTA4MTAxMjEwMy4xNzczODQ5MzM5#on-macos).

### Partitioning and Types of Installation

Partitioning should correspond to step 6 of the [official installation guideline](https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/install-ubuntu-desktop#6-type-of-installation).

This is an important step for a new Ubuntu OS installation. Depending on your own hardware setup, you can decide if the new Ubuntu 22.04 should be installed as:

- A dual boot alongside Windows / another Ubuntu version.
- On a new hard disk.
- In a new partition that you can configure.
