I installed Kubuntu from a USB Stick (you can dd the iso file to an usb-stick and then boot from it, very userfriendly!)
http://www.kubuntu.org

There is also a userfriendly package manager included. http://www.packagekit.org

With this package manager it was the first time, that I installed very easy the fpc and lazarus packages.

Would it also be possible to add the crosscompile files to the list of software which kubuntu shows?
