Why doesnt the bootup from CD interrogate the PC
and give useful advice about what to install
if the version on the install CD needs a more powerful PC or more RAM etc?

I defected from Xubtuntu to Lubuntu because I thought it would work on 
almost all old PCs,
but now I'm told it needs PAE CPU
and may crash inelegantly if the PC's too old for Lubuntu
