Pseudo Lubuntu Install

[DCmartiX]

With respect to the new Lubuntu derivative:

There is a very nice web site about the Minimal Install CD:

http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/minimal

At the end of the page, there are some terminal commands that install a very minimal set of apps after the OS has been installed. Is it crazy to think that, using those commands as a guide, the following would work?

sudo apt-get install xorg lubuntu-desktop

It seems, using that site as a guide, that it might work, but before I go out and buy an old refurb PC and screw it up, I would appreciate any technically competent evaluation. Thanks.

PS I used this site to look at what was IN the lubuntu-desktop:

If I would have just waited day, the distrowatch site would have told me:

"One promising Ubuntu variant missing from the distribution's product line-up last week was Lubuntu - an Ubuntu with the LXDE desktop.

"Additionally, if you want to test a minimal installation of Lubuntu then install a command-line system with an Ubuntu alternate ISO and install lubuntu-desktop. Lubuntu 9.10 is more of a prototype than a real release, more will come with Lucid Lynx - new shiny packages, new artwork, and maybe new default applications. If you want to help, all information is available on the Wiki page, and on the mailing list."

Sigh.
