I think that the alternative install is really for systems that
the regular install won't work on. If you have very low memory
the regular install will fill the memory stick or run very slowly.
Then you would use the alternative install because it would be
faster.<br>
<br>
If it's that slow, you might not be working with enough system to
do what you want to do. Someone who isn't computer savvy might
not get much benefit out of a very slow system.<br>
<br>
If you haven't done a lot of windows installs, sometimes the
system will stop running inexplicably while you are loading the
install media. That might be because the memory stick fills up
without fully loading the info that it needs to run. Shut the
system completely down for about thirty seconds and try again. I
have also found that wireless USB mouses sometimes interfere with
a Linux install. Disconnect the USB connection and use the
touchpad if you can. Otherwise, use a regular USB mouse.<br>
<br>
I mention these because you don't get any sort of explanation when
this happens, it just stops loading or installing. These things
could well happen with older, limited hardware.<br>
<br>
If you run out of recipients, I can have users for all of the
systems that you can put together in the Philippines. Contact me
off list for details.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello. I’m starting a project to
redistribute older PCs to folks in need. Lubuntu seems to
work well for this. I see it mentioned that the alternative
install version of Lubuntu is good for automated deployments
but I don’t see any specific mention of how-to
documentation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

for Ubuntu or is there something else I should be
reviewing? Thanks for the help!<o:p></o:p></p>
