Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Second Test Lubuntu Lucid 10.04.3 ISO image available

It's not overly pretty, but I've thrown a quick self building listing
together for the iso's I hold on my server, with md5 / sha1 files where I
have those as well.

My fault: I forgot to mention the md5sum is in the file at

  http://phillw.net/lubuntu-lucid-20110801-i386.iso.md5

It matches the one you posted.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Second Test Lubuntu Lucid 10.04.3 ISO image available

2011-08-01 Thread Lance
OK, some testing done. Just FYI, whether I have a passing md5sum or not I 
always begin by running the Live CD "self-test" and this one passed with no 
errors. I find it's always best to double-check even though I've had less than 
1% of my burns fail . I'm kind of anal retentive about such things ;^)

Anyway I've completed an "entire disc" install and an "auto-resize" install 
with only very minor issues:

#1: As you said clicking on Install from the boot menu still brings up the live 
desktop.

#2: Choosing "login automatically" during installation does not work.

#3: There is no "slide-show" during installation but to be honest I prefer that 
:^)

#4: The upstream bug #539027 (IO error after CD is ejected at end of install), 
but just like the live usb-creator problem these are Ubuntu issues so we just 
need to link to Ubuntu release notes I'd think.

But otherwise I find things to be quite usable, even that version of pcmanfm 
seems quite intuitive. Due to poor eyesight I keep a custom xorg.conf on my 
flash drive and I always copy it to home using pcmanfm, then use the terminal 
with "sudo" to move it to /etc/X11, and it just works great as does browsing 
through multiple other OS's and data partitions.

IMHO there are no real show-stopper bugs in this iso, although I know from 
having played with Lubuntu on my old Micron w/335mhz PII and 256MB RAM that 
installing from live does not work, but generally installing by choosing 
install from the boot menu will, so we'd probably be doing somewhat low-spec 
users a favor by having that work.

NOTE: That old PII 335mhz is painfully slow with Lubuntu, but no slower than 
Win XP. Puppy is a somewhat better fit but it gives me fits with my wired 
router whereas Lubuntu has no connection problems at all.

Sorry to get a bit off topic. It looks to me like you're very close on this and 
just FYI I'm testing on actual hardware:

Intel Atom 230 CPU @ 1.60GHz
System Memory 2GB DIMM
Intel 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics

Thanks again for all your hard work,

Lance

Well, I'm a significant step closer. A file called
lubuntu-lucid-20110801-i386.iso is being uploaded to Phill W's site as I
type.  It still has a non-functional "Install Lubuntu" menu item, but
the "Try Lubuntu without installing" one now has an appropriate
installer icon on the desktop, and clicking it works, allowing you to
install Lubuntu 10.04.3 to your hard drive.  At least, it works for me
in VirtualBox.

Once the upload finishes, it should available using

  wget -c http://phillw.net/lubuntu-lucid-20110801-i386.iso

I'm not sure how much more time I will be able to spend on this during
the work week, so I'm uploading a second test 10.04.3 ISO that I know
still has at least one significant flaw.  If anyone out there is
expecting a "real" fully working and fully tested Lubuntu 10.04.3
release image, then "These are not the ISOs you are looking for" :)

Just downloaded it, the md5sum I get is:

3f2d7b310e2db02a08b6085bd03b44ba  lubuntu-lucid-20110801-i386.iso

I'm going to go ahead and burn it because I seldom get a bad download, but 
thought I should verify all the same.

I'll let you know how things go.
