I have a very slow upload speed, though, so it might be quicker to snail mail a DVD to someone. :) I'm close to having a solution to this. I created an .iso of my own regular xubuntu installation last night, installed it freshly this morning on a different partition, and the lilypond builds all worked perfectly. Just now I removed all of the software I think is superfluous and am running another doc-build. If it works I'll create an .iso from it and see how big it is. The one I made last night was huge, 1.5GB, but it had all the non-lily related stuff I always install and it wasn't created from a fresh OS install the way it's recommended. This one should be considerably smaller. Jon -- Jonathan Kulp http://www.jonathankulp.com
