Gents: zsync'd the latest daily of Lu Next and tried to run the install . . . a few issues showed up . . . filed under bug report #1767899 with comments:
1. As historically the desktop icon installer hasn't worked very well, I tried to use the "calamares" option to install Lu Next 18.04 . . . choosing "manual" and working my way through the options all seemed to be going well . . . within seconds of clicking "install" there was an error window saying "install failure" with a few phrases copied: "Boost.Python error in job 'unpackfs' . . . class 'os errors', errno30 read-only file suystem: 'archdetect' traceback." Quit the Calamares installer and tried from the same "live session": 2. Launching the installer from the desktop icon, the window titlebar says "Install Kubuntu 18.04" . . . but in the window under "Other options" it says "Lubuntu Next" . . . now the installer is tediously slow to load the various installer windows, it took several minutes to find an error and report that the first install had left "/tmp/calamares-root-vlovy8rk" (?) was still mounted" and asked if I wanted to unmount it, I clicked yes . . . then it continued to have a spinning cursor for several minutes that seemingly nothing was happening . . . I made the executive decision to abort by re-starting, which one of the installers had broken something in grub, as instead of the regular list of linux installs to choose from it went into a grub console window . . . shut the machine down by pb and on reboot tried a third install from desktop icon. 3. Third time was a charm and the install went through just fine, but when getting to the log in window to enter password, and error window opens saying: "Xsession: unable to launch "/usr/bin/lxsession > Lubuntu > LXDE Xsession not found-falling back to default session." Clicking OK closes the error and logging into session is fine. 4. Just like in regular Lu 18.04 the "eject" key doesn't open the optical drive tray, but running a command in the console will open the tray. 5. When resuming from "suspend" the olde "Xscreensaver" log in window looks kind of declasse' in comparison to the newer slick looking desktop environment graphics. F
