Hi Simon, Taking a break from household things. Take a look at my install notes and let me know if you want me to put any of this stuff on LaunchPad.

Used your link and downloaded MD5SUMS and zesty-desktop-i386.iso. Ran md5sum and it checked out OK:- 1c3f420bb80754bc3b31eb479d77e3b5 zesty-desktop-i386.iso Used Startup Disc Creator on a 4GB USB flash drive. Hardware used to install iso on: Samsung NC10 - hawking Intel Atom N270, 1.66GHz, 32-bit, 2GiB RAM, 149.05 GiB hard drive, no optical drive, Ethernet and WiFi connections Full details see here:- https://gist.github.com/21b61903871ee685fc79 Booted install media without Ethernet cable connected. Had to reboot system after connecting Ethernet cable before it was happy to continue the update. Opted for "Download updates while installing Lubuntu" and "Install third-party software". Chose option to wipe hard drive and install Lubuntu on top of it. Put in a hostname of "hawking" for this NetBook. Installer said there was already another system on the network called "hawking". Decided not to argue so named the system "hawking2". Install completed successfully and asked for the (installation) storage medium at a suitable time. Rebooted system, logged in. The start/swift menu icon isn't present. Ran Software Updater OK. Saw an email on lubuntu-devel complaining about Firefox not working. On my NetBook, ran Firefox (version 50.1.0) ran fine and I Googled "Hello World". Normally I only use the "alternate" iso images and in the install I repartition the hard drive manually. For some reason I did it a little differently this time :) BW, Ian -- -- ACCU - Professionalism in programming - http://www.accu.org -- My writing - https://sites.google.com/site/ianbruntlett/ -- Free Software page - https://sites.google.com/site/ianbruntlett/home/free-software
