Select Lubuntu from the drop list of distributions and then follow the remaining instructions.Download and then launch the Universal USB Installer.Universal USB Installer (does the Live Bootable USB conversion)Ĭreating a Bootable USB Lubuntu using Windows.4GB or larger USB flash drive (fat32 formatted).Īlso, other processor versions (for older processors) are available at the Lubuntu/Alternate_ISO wiki.įinally, if you don't have more than 700mB of RAM, you should select the installer from the first boot menu and do not select the installer from the "try Lubuntu" interface as the "try Lubuntu" option uses 200mB RAM to run the desktop.Minimum Flash Drive Capacity: 4GB+ (with persistence) The iso is 617mB, however, when you burn the iso to disk it should fit within 600 because the 617 includes reserved space, title of the file, etc. I think I found what you are looking for, it's called "alternate install" for Lubuntu and it's for pcs that can't handle the full Lubuntu version and or need to install using a CD rather than a DVD or a USB. NOTE: because of a bug in tasksel, DO NOT use tasksel to uninstall packages. Just choose command line install or graphical install (I think they are actually the same). I believe 14.04 installs a minimal command line environment first, then reboot and type taskselġ4.10 and newer have a better interface that lets you choose the desktop or apps to install right away. I believe those are not for installation purposes.

This also allows the option to not install all the bloat you normally get with a desktop install.īTW, I do not believe you should install any of the "live" desktops listed. It's like 32mb total and it does an install similar to tasksel like Debian or Ubuntu server where you can choose what to install and it will install it.
