* Sadly the Atom D2500 + the chipset is seen as 32-bit by the 14.04 64-bit
installer.
* (The 16.04 32/64bit versions both do not have 3D acceleration, only 12.04
and 14.04… and at least 14.04 still gets ESR patches).
* 18.04 and newer only boot to a blinking black cursor.

Hello -
This is an older release, on older (then-compatible) hardware. I cannot
sign in with my account for ESR support because I cannot install it.
Replying with the email account I signed up with free the 3-device Ubuntu
Advantage limit.
What is needed to fix this bug?

Public bug reported:
This was an issue which occurred during setup and brought me to this bug
report page. I need an older Ubuntu install for the GMA500 driver which
has not been updated for newer distros sadly.
(Should I open another bug for no 3D acceleration with GMA500 on 20.04
or 22.04?)
