Thanks for testing :) I'm not really afraid about the memory usage at
start up, it should be near 60 Mo naked. Problem can be when using
it :)
No installation for now, until bug 497441 is fixed. And it's still build
with Lucid, which is still in a very early stage of development :)

I made a virtualbox vm with 128 M RAM. I could boot into the live
system from your CD. Cool! Is there a way to install it on the
virtual hard drive? Or is that not ready yet?
Let me know. I have lots of machines waiting for this distro once it
is ready, so I'll have a lot to test it on.
Thanks!

Hi,
I just created an ISO of Lubuntu Lucid for testing purpose. But before
starting to download it, please read the following release notes :
* Using lxdm instead of gdm
This ISO uses a not-yet-in-the-official-repository version of lxdm, the
display manager of LXDE instead of gdm. I would like to test the state
of it and if it's possible to include it in Lubuntu.
* Using network-manager instead of wicd
This is a temporarily solution, my first tests reported that wicd
doesn't work on Live-CD.
* Doesn't have utilities (manage users, network etc ...)
It's a bug in gnome-system-tools (see bug 497441 [1]) which bring all
GNOME packages as depends. It was temporarily removed from the seed.
* Doesn't have an installation icon
See previous point, it's the same problem.
* Can't use synaptic, or any applications using gksu
It's a problem in lxdm, not creating an .Xauthority file. To workaround
it, you can do in a terminal startx, which should crash but create the
necessary file. It's something to fix before trying to include lxdm.
* No customization, looks like a Ubuntu CD
Yes, I know. Artwork welcome :)
So, as everyone is warned, there is the link :
ISO : http://people.ubuntu.com/~gilir/lubuntu-lucid-20091220.iso
md5sum : 7fb4b82a7faadb209e2ae4ca831283e5
Last note, this ISO was created by-hand (mean by using
chroot/mksquashfs/mkisofs), because building with official architecture
is currently blocked (space problem on the server).
Happy testing :)

Julien Lavergne
