Re: Can someone test something for me?

 

Aloha everyone,

Thanks again for the swift replies. If you head down to
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/ Documentation/MinimalInstall
you'll see the installation instructions have been altered. I've also added
more information about the differences between the core and desktop
packages. Seeing this concerns the wiki, I've also included the wiki
mailing-list.

With metta, Chris
