Lubuntu should work quite well on your machine. Lubuntu has very good hardware detection, generally requires less disk space than Windows and uses less in resources (CPU and memory). I did something similar with my old Thinkpad T41 (Win7 and Lubuntu 16.04 LTS). The simplest way to do this is to let the Lubuntu installer will allow you to resize the WinXP partition, install Lubuntu in two extended partitions (/ [root] and swap). Grub (boot manager) installs by default and is updated with any kernel updates. In preparation, you should optimize and back up the WinXP partition, then settle on a size that will allow for reasonable use. Also, a hardware inventory would be useful in the rare event that the installer can't sort out the hardware. Good hunting. -- Lubuntu-users mailing list Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users
