Hi, Steve.
I've used Bio-Linux for a long time and I helped a little bit in its
development. You might be interested in this blueprint:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/biobuntu
The current version of Bio-Linux 7 is based on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, but Tim
Booth who is the Bio-Linux lead developer is currently working on
Bio-Linux 8 based on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. You can get Bio-Linux from:

HTH,
Tony.
