<div>Ubuntu 10.04 Kernel does support some old hardware. Later one, starting from 10.10, some support had been dropped, that is exactly why we keep Lubuntu 10.04 available for people to install, or to be more accurate (I just checked our Wiki <a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/PreviousReleases" target="_blank">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/PreviousReleases</a> and <a href="https://launchpad.net/~moergaes" title="moergaes @ localhost[127.0.0.1]" style="font-family:inherit;font-size:13.63636302947998px;font-style:inherit;line-height:1;margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(221,72,20)" target="_blank">moergaes</a> has removed that part about Lubuntu 10.04 or maybe someone else did). Anyway, we kept Lubuntu 10.04 on our area for all that time for that reason.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I am NOT asking or telling to keep an old version, I'm just guessing that could be the issue :)</div></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Next weekend I'll try Lubuntu 10.04 on that desktop.</div>

<div>Somehow I did not manage to install neither Lubuntu 12.04 nor Lubuntu 12.10. <br></div></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>1GB RAM is WAY TOO MUCH and NO WAY the installer will fail due to the RAM. Unless, something is seriously wrong.</div>

<br></div><div>With old HDD, I have an approach, it helped me each and every time I do it. Using GParted, I wipe the whole HDD by creating new Partition Table.</div><div><br></div><div>What is the Size of your HDD?</div>
<div>Few times, I had to use 'dd' but these are rare cases when I had to do it.</div><div><br></div><div>IMHO, I do NOT think it is a memory issue that crashed the installer. <br><br>Sometimes, the fix is really easy that we don't even see or notice.

<div><br></div><div>I'm very interested in spreading Lubuntu in Brazil, specially for those with old/low specs hardware that think Lubuntu cannot be powerful and beautiful compared to Ubuntu.</div><div><br></div><div>
