The official website provides the full .ISO image for 64-bit systems (there is no 32-bit version available). You can download it, and then burn it onto a CD or USB drive.
Instead of downloading the full .ISO, you can also download Lubuntu and update your OS with the new Santoku packages.
The Santoku 0.5 requires a Lubuntu 14.04 64-bit install (you can make a VM in Virtualbox) which is then updated with the Santoku package repository.
Here is how to do it:
1. Download the Lubuntu 14.04 x64 iso using links below and install up your Linux system/VM.
2. Apply updates in Lubuntu. (This will take some time.) Restart.
3. Download this build script directly on your Lubuntu install, rename it to just .sh extension and make it executable.
4. Open a terminal and run the script. (Or, to exercise your Linux-fu, type the commands.)
