Intel Atom Linux
Atom For Linux
Ubuntu 15.10 Wily Werewolf released for desktop, phone, and server. 'Ubuntu 15.10 also uses Linux Kernel 4.2 which adds new features for recent Intel Atom chips' it also says 'Ubuntu 16.04, which is schedule to launch in April, 2016.' I expect pretty good support for Atom devices by the time 16.04 comes out.
ISOsRespun ISOs
As examples of using my ‘isorespin.sh‘ script I've created various ISOs including those suitable for Intel Atom and Intel Apollo Lake devices.Ubuntu 20.04 LTS - 20.04.1 (Focal Fossa)
Canonical have released the first point release of Ubuntu 20.04 Long-Term Support (LTS) as Ubuntu 20.04.1:
Atom (-i ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso --atom)
Apollo (-i ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso --apollo)
I've also respun the 'Focal Fossa' desktop ISO with the '--server' option to create a pseudo server ISO suitable for Intel devices with a 32-bit bootloader:
Server (-i ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso --server)
Lubuntu 20.04 LTS - 20.04.1 (Focal Fossa)
Canonical have also announced the official 20.04.1 flavours of Ubuntu including Lubuntu:

Downloading Note
After downloading an ISO file it is recommended to test that the file is correct and safe to use by verifying the integrity of the downloaded file. An error during the download could result in a corrupted file and trigger random issues during the usage of the ISO.
The program 'md5sum' is designed to verify data integrity using the MD5 (Message-Digest algorithm 5) 128-bit cryptographic hash. The MD5 calculation gives a checksum (called a hash value), which must equal the MD5 value of a correct ISO.
First open a terminal and go to the correct directory to check a downloaded ISO. Then run the command 'md5sum ' for example:
md5sum linuxium-atom-ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso
'md5sum' should then print out a single line after calculating the hash:
5157b92b64ac5a9a0b69c8d27888c739 linuxium-atom-ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso
Compare the hash (the alphanumeric string on left) from your output with the corresponding hash below. If both hashes match exactly then the downloaded file is almost certainly intact. However if the hashes do not match then there was a problem with the download and you should download the file again.

Once you have verified your ISO it is necessary to write it to an USB to create an installation USB often known as a LiveUSB as not only can you install Ubuntu from it but you can also run Ubuntu for diagnostic, testing and fixing and existing installation.

There are several ways to write the ISO to USB however I recommend using Rufus on Windows or dd on Linux:
dd if=linuxium-atom-ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M

where ‘linuxium-atom-ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso' is your ISO and ‘sdX' is the USB drive using ‘ls -l /dev/disk/by-id/usb* | head -1 | sed 's?.*/??'‘ to determine this.

Whilst the latest version of version of 'isorespin.sh' supports the respinning of the latest Ubuntu and Ubuntu flavoured 20.10 (Groovy Gorilla) ISOs I don't have sufficient space available at the moment to post an example ISOs similar to those posted here.
So I've created a questionnaire to ask which ISOs are required both now and in the future.
There are only three sections:
Types of ISOs
Future ISOs
containing a total of 10 questions requiring a simple 'yes' or 'no' answer and a final open-ended question.
Please complete the questionnaire to ensure your opinion and needs are heard.
If you find the script or ISOs useful please donate using the following link http://goo.gl/nXWSGf as everything helps with development costs.
In this tutorial you will learn to install atom text editor in Ubuntu (Linux).
Atom is a free and open-source text and source code editor for macOS, Linux, and Microsoft Windows with support for plugins written in Nodejs and embedded Git control developed by GitHub, which provides us with a platform to create responsive and interactive web applications. Atom is a desktop application built using web technologies. Atom is based on Electron (known as atom shell), It can also be used as an integrated development environment (IDE).
There is a web inspector that will reveal all code that runs the app on the fly.
Now let's see how to install this on Ubuntu.
How to Install Atom Text Editor in Ubuntu (Linux)There are different ways to install this. Here I will show you popular two ways of them.
Method 1: Using SNAPSNAP is a universal Linux package. Snaps work on any distribution or device. Snaps are faster to install, easier to create, safer to run and they update automatically and our app is always fresh and never broken.
Now see the steps to install ATOM on Ubuntu via SNAP.
Step 1: First open Terminal on your Ubuntu system. (Shortcut to open terminal: Ctrl+Alt+T).
Step 2: Now we must install SNAP package first. For that type the following command and hit Enter.
sudo apt install snapd
Then it will ask for super user password. Type and hit enter to continue.
Step 3: Above step installs snap. Now we can install Atom on Ubuntu. For that type the following command and hit enter.
sudo snap install atom –classic
Then you can see the following installation procedure.
Now finally installation success message.
It's so simple right!!! Now you can search for applications menu.
Note: If you won't find atom icon in application menu after these steps, just restart your system it definitely appear to you.
Open the Atom text editor. It's appear like this.

Now you can start and building applications, programs etc. Refer ATOM guide for more information to work with Atom. Or just carry on, by practicing on Atom you will be able to learn lot of things. As per my knowledge it has rich set of options as equal as Sublime text editor.
Method 2: Using PPAPPA means Personal Package Archive. It is a special software repository for uploading source packages to be built and published as an APT repository by Launchpad or a similar application. One best thing about PPA is it supports both 32-bit and 64-bit.
Now let's see steps to install Atom text editor in Ubuntu via PPA.
Step 1: Open terminal [shortcut: Ctrl+Alt+T].
Step 2:  Add PPA. For that open terminal and type the following command and hit Enter.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/atom
Then it will ask for super user password, type it and hit enter.
After adding PPA we can install ATOM on Ubuntu.
Step 3: Type the following commands at a time in terminal.
sudo apt update; sudo apt install atom
You should not type these commands one after other. Because in some cases repository may lock user to enter into it. Then you will get unable to access repository error to install. This can be avoided by typing.

sudo apt-get update
After this completion, type next command to install atom, it is:
sudo apt-get install atom
But this also work for only some ubuntu configurations. May not successful for all types.
In above picture it again asking sudo password because I closed terminal after adding PPA and opened it again. It directly installs if you can continue after adding PPA.
Success message will be like this.
Installing atom is completed.
I tried both ways of installing by SNAP and by PPA.
Both worked for me. You can see two ATOM text editors (both same versions) installed on my system.
You can see two atom editors installed on my system. Unlike windows it never say already application installed while installing second atom text editor, even though both are same versions. Because both installed in different repositories. Both installed via different packages. One form PPA and other from SNAP.
You can see two text ATOM text editors working on my system. Two windows and on left side pane also two atom icons you can find.
Now I am uninstalling one atom by typing following command.
Intel Atom Linuxsudo apt remove –purge atom
Atom For LinuxThis removes the ATOM installed via PPA. Unreal tournament halo.
