Bug Description

Hi, albeit over a year ago, I was told that Lubuntu would be added to Wubi once it was fully adopted. This happened in 11.10. My fault for not checking, but I've had it pointed out that it is not on there.

Thanks,

Phill.

I can deal with most of this, but I'm going to need the Lubuntu people
to provide a few image files. If you run 'bzr co
lp:~ubuntu-installer/wubi/trunk wubi' and look in wubi/data/images/, it
should be obvious what I need. Thanks in advance.

I can't help with the development end, but I'll certainly do whatever testing is requested, although I'll only be able to test i386.

This is something that we should do, if viable and not too time consuming for Colin, because it's possible that someone may want to try Lubuntu on a Win 7 computer with 4 existing primary partitions.

For that matter some Vista OEM's used 4 primary partitions, but it's now become very common with Win 7.

Julien just contacted me, these were the images he requested. If there's anything else just give me a shout :).

  Add Lubuntu support (LP: #907524).

So this should be fixed as of http://people.canonical.com/~evand/wubi/precise/wubi-r255.exe, which will be on the next daily CD build (conveniently starting in 15 minutes from now).

@ Colin,

I typically wait until at least Beta 1 before testing any Wubi options, I think I was once told to do so?????

Would you like for me to test this in the next few days? I say "few days" because I may not have time until the 12th or 13th. Thanks in advance.
