I've never done a Linux install except by rebooting from a DVD, and that can't be done here. Do I download a .iso of Manjaro to the Lubuntu disk, and use the .iso file instead of the DVD ? What *command* actually begins the installation ? Is there some way to boot another OS from the terminal CL without a hard reboot ?

Thanks, I've been looking at other problems and just got back to this.
