What are the differences in Linux distros?
The main difference between Ubuntu-based Linux distributions and Ubuntu flavors is that Ubuntu-based Linux distributions are developed and maintained by third parties while Ubuntu flavors are developed and maintained by the same team that develops and maintains the Ubuntu.
What are the types of Linux?
Open a terminal program (get to a command prompt) and type uname -a. This will give you your kernel version, but might not mention the distribution your running. To find out what distribution of linux your running (Ex. Ubuntu) try lsb_release -a or cat /etc/*release or cat /etc/issue* or cat /proc/version.
