Hard to install on ubuntu. Which in fact could be solved by running a
virtual machine with centos running mapguide, which is not an option
for a live dvd.

In fact, we can update the overview [0] to limit to red hat/centos and
windows (or whatever is appropriate), instead of 'linux and windows'.
And specify that this is the reason why it is not included on the live
dvd.
