[lubuntu-devel] Dell Latitude CPx

Hi All,

I've done a bit of experimentation and Googling but haven't had any luck...

I have a Dell Latitude CPx (Pentium III, 512MiB RAM, 80GB hard drive,
CD-ROM drive).

It currently has Debian Linux 7.1. I would like to replace that with
Lubuntu 16.04. I can't do that at the moment because the relevant isos
won't fit on a CD-R.

So I have 2 questions:-
1. Is there an Ubuntu 32 bit variant that fits on CD-R?
2. I can get to the BIOS setup screen but once I'm there, the system
ignores all keypresses and the only thing you can do is keep the power
button down until it eventually switches off. If I can change BIOS
settings, I might be able to persuade the system to accept Lubuntu.

I can't boot from USB at the moment, either.

TIA,


Ian
