Yes amjjawad, at least hard ;-)

Maybe easy for a guru, but hard for me. My experience (with Lubuntu
12.04+) is similar to what is recommended in the following link (I don't
know who wrote it, and maybe you disagree, but the sweet point 700 MB
RAM is stated twice).

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Alternate_ISO

Best regards
