Chapter 1.1 Retrieving the image Chapter 1.1 Retrieving the image
================================= =================================
Before you install Lubuntu, you need to retrieve the correct image. Lubuntu supports AMD64 CPU types also known as 64-bit with a new version every six months (supported for nine months), and every two years being a long term support release (supported for three years). Lubuntu 24.04 is a Long Term Support release supported until 2027. Lubuntu 24.10 is supported until July 2025.

LTS vs. Regular Releases LTS vs. Regular Releases
------------------------ ------------------------
Lubuntu offers two types of releases. The **Long Term Support** release, or the **LTS**, is the release recommended for most users. It is supported for three years after the release date and does not contain new features. Throughout the course of the cycle, the Ubuntu Kernel Team will deliver **Hardware Enablement** updates, or **HWE** updates, to Lubuntu via Linux kernel updates. Previously, Lubuntu used **LXDE** but since 18.10 it has used the **LXQt**. Lubuntu 20.04 is the First **Long Term Support** release which uses the more modern **LXQt** desktop environment.

For users looking to try new features every six months at the expense of the support cycle length, Lubuntu offers **interim releases**, or **regular releases**. These releases, while they are considered stable, are testing grounds for major, new features which will be rolled into the LTS release. Users of the regular releases are typically enthusiasts and somewhat more experienced users looking for a fresher experience.

**It is extremely important that if you choose this path, you upgrade to each successive regular release shortly after it comes out.** If you are not comfortable doing this, you should consider using the LTS release instead. **It is extremely important that if you choose this path, you upgrade to each successive regular release shortly after it comes out.** If you are not comfortable doing this, you should consider using the LTS release instead.

To change what device your computer will boot off of you will need to use the :guilabel:`Install boot loader on` drop down menu to select which disc to boot off of. Lubuntu's bootloader grub does not support creating an encrypted / partition without a separate unencrypted /boot partition. If you create a separate /home partition will be where you save all your user documents photos and videos so make sure if you create one it has enough space for your personal files. All partitions created do not be on the same drive so you can for example put /home on its own drive to give you lots of space and then put / where all of your system and programs will be launched from. A good example of a sensible way to use manual partitioning is if you have a solid state disk and a hard drive in a computer, put the / partition on the solid state drive for faster program launches and /home on the hard drive for more space for your files.
