== Instructions on installing Ubuntu 8.04 on 64MB RAM or below ==

Due to [[https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/202959|Bug #202959]] the latest Ubuntu Version "Hardy Heron" (8.04) is currently not able to install '''at all''' on 64MB or less.
Here's a workaround:


==== 1) Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy) Command-Line Installation ====
 * Download the [[http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969/file?info_hash=%06%DA%2A%9F%C6%7D%40N%26%B9g7%7D%D0B%93%D9.%BFt|Gutsy Alternate ISO]]
 * Select '''Command-line installation''' at the boot prompt
 * Proceed the installation

==== 2) Prepare Upgrade to 8.04 (Hardy) ====
 * this command changes all instances of 'gutsy' to 'hardy' in /etc/apt/sources.list
{{{sudo sed -i 's|gutsy|hardy|g' /etc/apt/sources.list}}}
 * this command outcomments the old (Gutsy) CDROM entry
{{{sudo sed -i 's|deb cdrom|#deb cdrom|g' /etc/apt/sources.list}}}
	
==== 3) Optional: Use Hardy CDROM for upgrading ====

You can '''save time and traffic''' by adding the [[http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969/file?info_hash=%A5nJ_%F6i%F0%FEG%85%99%B0%A04%24bG%A7.z|Hardy Alternate ISO]] to the sources.list - just put it into the tray and run this command:
{{{sudo apt-cdrom add}}}

==== 4) Upgrade! ====

{{{sudo apt-get dist-upgrade}}}
	
Afterwards reboot and install your minimal desktop (icewm, fluxbox et.al).

{{{sudo reboot}}}
