cannot install ubuntu on older HP computer

[Antczak Family]

I installed lubuntu from CD and all went fine.   I did the full install that
wiped the hard drive since the hard drive is so small.  Now I need to get
the internet running on it.    On that computer I was using a linksys USB
adapter.   Can I reinstall that using the linksys CD?   I have never used an
OS other than Windows.
