Thank you Nio and sorry for wasting your time. It must have take a lot of time and effort to create the image and upload it to the site. I hope there will be people who will use your lubuntu-core image. I've downloaded Lubuntu-13.10-desktop-grub-n-iso-n-swap.img.gz and will install it when I get my hands on an extra USB stick. I hope I will be able to install it since I've only got 512Mb of RAM. Cheers!
