[QUOTE="OnOff, post: 324086, member: 16173"] OK, been trying to install Lubutu 12.04 "alternate" on this pc in Post #1. I burnt the ISO image to CD. I then booted up with the Lubuntu disc in. Did the HDD and memory test and both OK. Last night all went well until it "hung" with a light blue screen with a thin white strip at the bottom........ Next attempt all looking good, -keyboard set up, -detects hardware, -loads additional components, -set up users and passwords, -DID NOT encrypt, -did the clock. -Onto partitioning and went for "Guided-use entire disc". -Went on to "Installing the base system". ............................. -Configuring apt -Select and install software Then appeared to "hang" at 14% on "Select and install software" / "configuring language-pack-en-base" at 14% - got this far TWICE with same result! Should I maybe format the disc with a "utility" 3 1/2" floppy I have from way back BEFORE booting from the CD or use a CD drive cleaner etc? [/QUOTE]
