I'm trying to install Lubuntu-13.10 onto my laptop as the XP operating system replacement. Vale XP. Laptop is ASUS. System type X86-based PC, processor 1596Mhz, Total physical memory 512MB, Available physical memory 216MB.

I unzip the .iso file from the CD drive. I click on wubi.exe and it all looks to be going well. Full green bar for 'Installing Lubuntu-13.10'. 1/5 green bar for 'Remaining time approximately 0s', then this error mesage: "An error occurred: No such file or directory. For more information, please see the log file: c:\docume~1\admini~1\locals~1\temp\wubi-13.10-rev284.log"

Any help greatly appreciated. Gav

If you're trying to completely replace XP with Lubuntu 13.10 I would recommend to just make a bootable usb-stick with rufus (as described here) and then just boot via usb.

I was under the impression that Ubuntu 12.04 was the last supported version under WUBI so you may not be able to install it and Microsoft Windows XP is due to stop getting security updates in a couple of weeks. That means that you computer will be vulnerable. Plus no patches for applications will be released. Recommend that you install Ubuntu directly after you back up your data. It is a better option and if you wait a couple of weeks the new Ubuntu version will be released.
