http://ubuntuforums.org – I'v been installing Lubuntu 12.04 Alternate and it been going at least 10 hours, but going through all the steps. Not that long before I installed Lubuntu 10.04 and the install didn't take long. So what would be wrong? Dell Optiplex GX 252mb ram 40G hard drive. (Hardware)

Hi Guys,

Just looking for someone who runs LUBUNTU all the time.. I have a question...

I have a very old DELL Optiplex gx280 and was running XUBUNTU it has 512 mb ram and 40 gig hardrive..

I noticed on xu.... It would try to lock up so I did an in place upgrade (( SUDO APT-GET INSTALL LUBUNTU-DESKTOP ) and so far so well...

Just wondering.. Is Lubuntu safe for use full time?

Lubuntu from USB 35 weeks 2 days ago

I have An Acer Aspire 1362 Laptop with AMD Sompron 2800+ processor and only 256MB RAM, with Windows XP installed. I have downloaded Lubuntu-12.04-alternate-i386.iso and installed it to a 16GB USB stick. I do not want to install Lubuntu on my hard drive (yet!).

I have got the USB stick to boot, and am working my way through the menu.

I am trying to install Lubuntu in an HCL Computer with the following specifications.

Intel Celeron M 214MB RAM 80GB HDD

I used the Alternate Installer and followed through the following steps:

Selected Install Lubuntu Selected Language, Location and Keyboard settings

Now it asked me for rt2561.bin firmware for the wireless card to be installed through a USB.

Hi there, I am just wondering if it is possible to do an OEM Install of Lubuntu 12.04 since I need to prepare an old laptop for a new home.

I have followed this guide and downloaded a Lubuntu 12.04 alternate CD. Unfortunately, this guide is fairly outdated and I can no longer see the option to "Prepare for end-user configuration".

I have tried twice to install Lubuntu 12.04 on my Asus 900 netbook. I did it using the lubuntu-12.04-alternate-i386.iso image, which I put on a USB stick using UNetbootin. I ran the install twice, once connected to internet and once not.

How to Install Lubuntu on pc 1 year 14 weeks ago

I am having problem with the installation of Lubuntu 11.10 .

First post!! ):P

I am trying to install lubuntu onto an LG laptop model LS50e (quite old!) It has a Celeron M Processor 1.5GHz, 40GB hard drive and 238(?)MB RAM.

I boot from the CD and (after the gfxboot error), the "trial" screen comes up.

All is good so far..

When I press the "Install Lubuntu 12.10" button, the machine goes off and seems to try to install the program.

hi all, i'm new to the whole Ubuntu/ Lubuntu OS.

I have an old dell laptop so i decided to install ubuntu on it. I then ran in to graphics card problems and it would boot to the desktop sometimes but overall didn't work well. So i decided to go for Libuntu.
