Well, sort of.  In practice I usually skip (1) and (3).  So:

 A. Copy any data you need from the hard drive to somewhere else
 B. Boot from Lubuntu Alternate CD and install it.

Then, very rarely, only if the Alternate install failed:

 C. Boot from mini.iso and try installing Lubuntu that way instead.
