Bug Description
A lot of people are actually confused when wanting to install ubuntu netbook remix as they need a LPIA iso and UNR is only available as i386.
Most of them will install MID and then install the ubuntu-
On ubuntu.com when downloading the UNR img it says "What do I need to install Ubuntu Netbook Remix?" and below that it says "An Intel Atom processor". This gives more confusion because then you download an i386 image...
UNR is not fully optimized for netbooks without lpia support. LPIA is one of the main features specific to netbooks and shouldn't be ignored.
i386 was a safer bet for the first release of UNR, also having an i386 and a lpia version double the QA time; however we will consider this idea for 9.10, there are some issues with lpia still.
