Hi there!
<div><br></div><div>I had Ubuntu 10.04 LTs installed on my desktop AMD Athlon 1800+ XP and 1GB RAM. According to cat/proc/cpuinfo it supports PAE. </div><div><br></div><div>This desktop has been turned off for 2 years and now I decided to install Lubuntu there. Before start installing Lubuntu, I played a lot with that Ubuntu 10.04 just to remind me how it was. This desktop is not connected to the Internet, so no problem once 10.04 is EOL.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Although it has 1GB RAM, lubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386.iso crashes when on slideshow. Removing ubiquity-slideshow-lubuntu didn't help at all once crashing remains. Desktop keeps rebooting by itself.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Alternate lubuntu-12.10-alternate-i386.iso crashes too on different parts, sometimes when partioning, sometimes almost at the end of installation. I know it was almost the end of installation because I followed Karl video on alternate installer. Desktop keeps rebooting by itself.</div>
<div><br></div><div>MD5 of the isos were checked. </div><div><br></div><div>MD5 of the CDs were checked too with md5sum -c md5sum.txt | grep -v "SUCESSO" (SUCESSO means success because I'm running Lubuntu in portuguese from a laptop).</div>
<div><br></div><div>Install from LiveUSB is not possible once the BIOS does not allow boot from USB.</div><div><br></div><div>Hard drives are not that used because they were changed on 2011, installed Ubuntu 10.04 there and never turned on after buying laptops. </div>
<div><br></div><div>I've even tested hard drives with palimpsest before trying to install Lubuntu.</div><div><br></div><div>There's nothing specific on release notes either.</div><div><a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QuantalQuetzal/ReleaseNotes/Lubuntu#Known_Issues">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QuantalQuetzal/ReleaseNotes/Lubuntu#Known_Issues</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>Any ideas what else should I do to install Lubuntu on this AMD desktop? </div><div><br></div><div>Ubuntu 10.04 is not there anymore once partition from Alternate installer was successfull.</div><div><br>
</div><div>Thank you in advance for your suggestions!</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div>Iberê</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div>
