Did you see my correspondence with Phill et.all today?

I added you to the mailing list. Maybe those mails were stopped by your
spam filter.

Anyway, finally I was able to run it in the Dell. But before that I ran
a persistent live session booted from a current Lubuntu Alpha 2 USB
drive. And I needed no boot options, I have no graphics issues with the
current kernel.

But maybe there are issues [only] with the older kernel, that comes with
the alternate iso. That is why I think a re-spin would help.

-o-

By the way, I was also able to boot the installed system in the USB HDD
in an old IBM Thinkcentre via a grub menu entry with chainloading.

Most things work, but like Raring, the colour map defaults to a simple
one, maybe only 256 colours, so the default wallpaper looks ugly. It is
obvious that the support of old hardware is vanishing. This is old Intel
graphics.

Best regards

Title:
  Lubuntu Saucy fails to boot after installation

Status in “debian-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I'm not at all sure what's wrong but I'm testing the Lubuntu i386
  20130722 Alternate image and after the installation completes I simply
  can't boot into a working DE. The disc ejects as it should and the
  boot process appears to be trying to do something, but nothing ever
  happens.
