Hi Jack,

When you boot up, hold your Shift key down to get your GRUB menu.

Select: Advanced Options for Ubuntu
Select: Ubuntu, with Linux VERSION (recovery mode)

When you boot up:
Select: root

It should bring you to a root console.

DISCLAIMER: Be *very* careful as this doesn't have the usual restrictions and 
you could *permanently* damage your system if you don't follow my instructions.

Next, type the following to remount / as a readable and writable partition:

mount -o remount,rw /

Then, if you had /home or anything else on separate partitions, run:

mount --all

Then, after that, run the following to ensure Lubuntu is installed:

apt update && apt install lubuntu-desktop

I haven't done this in a while, so I don't know if it has networking right 
away, but to get networking, run:

ifup --all

If it prompts you to install some packages, great. That's your issue. You 
reboot and it should be all fine from there. If not, follow up and let us know.

Good luck!
