Minimal CD

If you absolutely must use a CD to install your system, and you’re able to download updates while doing an install, we recommend using the Minimal CD, which is tiny and easily fits on a CD. It uses the text-based alternate installer, which is better for older hardware.

During the installation, one of the options will be the package sets: select “Xubuntu Desktop” among them.

You can read more about the Minimal CD installation and download the appropriate ISO(s) from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD.

Upgrading

To get help with upgrading to a more current version, see the Upgrading section in the Xubuntu documentation.
