-- i re-did test from comment #13 (oct 5) hopefully correctly using
lubuntu
installed lubuntu 18.04.1 on dell 755 without updates
i did NOT format /, using old /home from #13
reooted post install, pointed sources to my ISP's ubuntu mirror, dist-upgrade &
reboot
added canonical kernel ppa; changed [ppa] source to point to cosmic;
update & install kernel. reboot & login (normally!)
