You can start with Ubuntu Server as long as you have an ethernet connection and installing a desktop, the lightest of the Desktops is Lubuntu. To install a basic Lubuntu desktop on Ubuntu Server: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install python-software-properties sudo apt-get install lubuntu-core With this you get a no-frills desktop with no extra software. |
