Public bug reported:
Had a dual boot laptop with Win XP, tried to update the Ubuntu
installation, using presented prompts. That process failed, and the
Ubuntu would start up but have many errors trying to run, so basically
useless.
Tried to update it using an ISO CD with newer version, that was not
possible - or I didn't know what to do differently.
Tried to erase the partition where Ubuntu was installed, then install a
smaller footprint lubuntu version there. Was not able to complete this
process, would not let me select the emply partition to install into.
Tried installing the lubuntu 16.10 to an USB thumb drive, it also
failed, so attached reports (if I am able to find them and attach)
should relate to that attempt.
