I downloaded the Lubuntu iso from http://lubuntu.net. It is 521MB.

How much disk space would a full install use? 2GB? 3GB? Anyone know exactly?

Since the regular Ubuntu is 3 GB, I would say Lubuntu is probably more like 2 GB.

No, it doesn't.

How big is your drive?

I have a netbook with only 16 GB (on an SSD), so I just don't use swap at all. Space is too precious for swap.
