You might also want to mention that it might be a good idea to rename
the xubuntu iso's to xintrepid-alternate-i386.iso or such. The file name
'intrepid-alternate-i386.iso' conflicts with the standard Ubuntu iso so
you end up having to rename one of them if downloaded into the same
download directory. See: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/
