First of all, thank you for this how-to, it is really useful and helpful and easy to follow.
But (there is almost always a but), I could not install Ubuntu Saucy mini on my E-350 machine.
It just kept freezing when I reached the language selector screen.
I used a USB pendrive and used YUMI to add the mini iso to the selectable linux distros - I only have an external DVD writer.
I searched for a solution but failed to find a useful one.
Finally, I chose to install the full desktop and it installed fine.
But it is slower than using an xfce desktop.
I have two questions:
1) Is there something I missed with the mini?
2) I tried to install the xfce4 but the screen falls apart when I start that session.
Is it a problem that I had Xubuntu 12.10 before and trying to install a newer right onto that partition?
I kept the content of /home.
Thank you in advance.
