Issues with lubuntu-13.10-alternate-i386.iso / .pics/logo-50.jpg fails MD5 Checksum

[Nio Wiklund]

Hi David,

Try some 12.04 LTS based version. I have been able to install for
example 'Precise Gnome Classic Tweaks' from either of the tarballs

GnomeClassic1204.tar.xz
GnomeClassic1204-oem.tar.xz

into a Compaq with 256 MB RAM and a 400 MHz

using Plop to redirect the booting from the CD drive to a USB pendrive
with the One Button Installer. See

You can probably also install

LXLE and Xubuntu 12.04 and Bodhi Linux from the tarballs provided with
the One Button Installer.

But I could not install Lubuntu 13.10, probably because some driver was
not working with such old hardware.

Good luck :-)
