Lubuntu System Requirement

[Aere Greenway]

I can successfully install Lubuntu on machines with 512 megabytes of 
memory, but only if I first (when running on the live CD), go into the 
package manager, and remove the lubuntu ubiquity slideshow package.

Without doing that, it crashes while still copying files to be installed.

On older levels, that was not a problem, but from 12.04 and above, it 
has been happening every time.
