Hi Phill,

Thanks for your reply but I guess you did not read my email carefully.

1- I'm very much aware of that.
2- I already have mentioned that I'm aware of that
3- It was a suggestion to have something in the middle and ready option
4- I have mentioned we can achieve it manually but it would be great (at
least IMHO) to have it as a ready option that you download and install.

If I have the required skills to build that and create an ISO, I would do
it without wasting my time writing these Emails ;)
>From now and on, I must save each and every second and be careful with my
time. Real Life is getting harder and I love Lubuntu and not planning to
leave it.

I hope I made myself clear now :)

Thanks!
