What's wrong with just the regular Ubuntu from Canonical? This Hubuntu is about 6 distributions behind the current 12.10 Ubuntu version and the software list doesn't contain anything too spectacular. The kernel*version*is only*January*2010 and the OS was translated into the Dari language(Persian dialect).
But I guess it's still better than Vista. (What wouldn't be).

No need to make another partition manually. Linux will do that for you if you so choose. You can adjust the settings if you wish.
