guys need your help

i installed lubuntu using burnt cd with the mini 32bit iso from the website.After installation and reboot a ubuntu logo(not lubuntu) appears and then the screen just goes blank. i installed xubuntu on the same system recently and it worked fine.
my system specs r really low(2.4ghz celeron with 256 ram)

i used this link for the 32 bit mini iso file: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/MinimalInstall

"mini 32-bit iso"

Are you sure you didn't get a command-line version? Because all you would get is a blank screen and blinking prompt.

yes . i solved the problem. i held down shift while rebooting. then i chose recovery mode. in the 'Dos' like screen i entered the commands given on the lubuntu homepage for installing lubuntu on top of ubuntu. they didint mention anywhere WHERE we had to enter the commands.#$%#%@

Ah. Suggest a change, and offer a more clear alternative?
