System requirements

Lubuntu recommended requirements

Source

We have done many tests and we've found out that Lubuntu can be installed on a Pentium II or Celeron system with 128 MB of RAM, but such a system would not perform well enough for daily use.

  • RAM: 256-384MB (512MB-1GB recommended)
  • Hard drive: 2GB
