Xubuntu still uses gnome based environment to run XFCE. While i kinda liked xubuntu karmic improved booting time, I wanted to experiment on running it to bare minimum on an old system, adding apps I my old lappy can handle.Thus the bare minimum karmic

Hi there everyone.I'm a xubuntu newbie user.

I've been trying to install a xubuntu karmic minimal install then add essentials apps from there. I'm installing it on a prehistoric vaio laptop (celeron) with 128mb and 10G of HD with a PCMCIA  connected CD drive. I was able to use xubuntu cd as the "update" source since my network card is also connected(configured) via that PCMCIA slot only. When I try to sudo apt-get install xfce from cd rom, it fails or says the file is not there. 


Is there a way to do things better or workaround this?

Thanks to all.
