To install a deb file you can use:
sudo dpkg -i file.deb
And it will install, you can make apt attempt to satisfy dependancys (if
they are needed) with:
sudo apt-get -f install
Should be fine

Did you MD5 test the ISO?
If you installed using a CD, did you check the CD for defects?

the 95% stall on install is a known 'bug'. I do not know how much RAM you

Re: md5checksum on CD
There is a bug on testing the CD, again it has been noted and when Julien
and Ian get some time it can be looked into. - If the person who gave me the
quicker instructions rather than the one I have I will pop it onto the
wiki.

Ah, well, hmm. I don't get the correct md5sum according to this
method either, Phill.

Burn as SLOWLY as you are allowed. Even 1x if you can. It will give a better
image on the CD and will reduce errors by jitter and such. Using a USB
device alleviates the need for moving CDs and such (assuming you can boot
USB). If not definately burn slow, try another brand if you still get issues
Yep, I was using the slowest speeds available. I've now installed
unetbootin and am creating a USB to boot this from. With any luck...
:-)
I'll let you know how I make out.
Thanks for the assist!

Those instructions are solely for the 10.04 disk, if you are using a
different installation method then the check sum will be different.

Sure, I can write up a version for Maverick, as soon as I understand

Hi Bob,
If the CD is not burned at 4X speed, it can cause horrors. In 9.10 I could
burn at that rate, in 10.04 I cannot. As a part of these 'funnies' that
happen, one of the tech guys told me that he could not burn at 4X in 9.10
but can do in 10.04 .
I have learned to 'cheat' and use CD-RW's
Okay, I'll try to wrap my head around the whole problem and see if I
can write it up coherently.. after a bit of sleep. :)
In the meantime, with the USB install, I have the same issues I noted
in my opening post.. and looking at the USB stick I notice that the
boot.cat file still has the wrong
Hi Bob,
does the iso that you are using pass the md5?
If you're using the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu#Download Lubuntu then I
can ask as to how the iso burns to a usb with checking the md5.

Phill.
