[lubuntu-users] Lubuntu 16.04.1 LTS has been released! (installing Lubuntu on an IDE HDD, attached though a USB adapter, presentation mode enabled to prevend Lubuntu to mounth the drive on wakeup)

[scrooyahoo at riseup.net]

Might it be possible to
turn ON, presentation mode, when the installer runs?

When installing  Lubuntu to a USB connected HDD (using the normal 
installer) then the sleepmode or screensaver mode, seems to try to mount 
the usb drive on wakup.  This apperently disrupts the installer errors 
popup and stuff crashes.

I now manually put the machine in presentation mode.  And so far so 
good...

Maybe there is a better way?


BTW, i discovered why the floppy did not work, there was a complete 
bunny hiding on the inside... So i will give that option also another 
try.
