sorry my bad. lubuntu is in the drop down (news to me). i was just screaming initially because we didn't have documentation, and since you said to scream if there was no documentation, i pointed out i had already screamed.

p.s. it might not be a bad idea to include the instructions on how to download the iso to use it with wubi as a fall back.
