Hi, Kadrija,

It was fairly easy but not quite straight-forward to make a Lubuntu Core
tarball from the Ubuntu 13.10 mini.iso. Please test it and let us know
how it works for you :-)

I have uploaded a tarball with the following md5sum and name to phillw.net

3d3064f982681bc1c78624d16062e6b9  tarballs/LubuntuCoreSaucy.tar.xz

There is fake-PAE. But in order to make the network portable I also
installed 'network-manager' and tweaked it according to this link

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/MinimalInstall#Unmanaged_Wired_Network

Best regards
Nio
