Public bug reported:
Package: lubuntu-desktop or lubuntu-meta. Whatever represents the
selection of installed program packages.
Issue: Even the alternate iso files are oversized. It will not be
possible to install from any Lubuntu 16.04 LTS iso file via a standard
700 MB CD disk (the limit is actually 703.125 Mibibytes). It is
particularly important to keep the i386 (32-bit) image small, because it
is used in *old computers* with 32-bit hardware, and some of these
computers are difficult to boot from other boot media than CD disks.
Workarounds:
1. Boot from DVD or USB where it works.
2. Boot (chainload) via Plop to Lubuntu on USB where it works.
3. Boot Ubuntu Server or Ubuntu mini.iso (within CD size) and install
the package 'lubuntu-desktop', if CD is the only alternative.
