Having a hard time finding specifics, could someone link me to some materials concerning licensing issues of Ubuntu, and link's at large?



I'm considering starting a business installing custom/embedded computer systems, and the open source nature of various Linux distros makes them the most attractive candidates for final installation. I just want to make sure it would be legal to do so.



Would I be able to charge for installation of the OS? If not, could I provide the customer the physical means for installation (CD, USB)?

Yes, you can charge for it. The only restriction is that you must provide your customers with the source code to the software. Provided that you don't modify it, that is already handled by Canonical and the Ubuntu archive mirrors.
