This should affect only fresh install, upgrade should be fine (as this
package was included in previous releases).
My 999 megahertz machine has been booting to a black screen since
Lubuntu 15.10, and it still happened with 16.04.  So I assumed that
machine can no longer be used.  Even the latest 14.04 now boots to a
black screen on it.

How can one install a package when the live system boots to a black screen?

There is no console mode visible, and no wireless yet (because the
passphrase has yet to be entered, and cannot be entered).


Hi Aere,

1. If your target computer boots from USB, you can make a system in a USB pendrive in another computer and move the pendrive to the target computer.

2. Have you tried to boot in text mode or just do ctrl + alt + F1, when you expect that it is ready for it? It helps you see what happens, if you remove the boot options quiet splash.

3. You could try to install a text-mode system, and while in text mode install the package Julien suggests. After that you can install lubuntu-core or lubuntu-desktop.

If you have a test system, where you can overwrite the drive, I find it easiest to use mkusb and install from a compressed image file,

dd_Xenial-32-txt_7.8GB.img.xz
