Ubuntu, Mint etc

[meddyliol]

How easy is it to set up an SD card with one of the 'other' Linux OS's? Such as Ubuntu or Mint etc? I see that there is a 'Snappy Ubuntu Core' available for download but how user friendly is it to set up with a GUI?

Cheers

Snappy Core is for Iot Developers it is not for home user /learners


There are Community developed Ubuntu 14.04 and Linaro 15.04 but like the defacto Raspbian are all based of Debian...

Also there is Fedora, Arch, TinyCore Linux OSes, as well as BSD Unix variants, and many others.........
