OK, I've downloaded these two isos:-
f10dfd15204c47177da81a3029c54220 *xenial-desktop-amd64.iso
8513386307089f23f03a924b108740f5 *xenial-desktop-i386.iso

Now I only had enough time to install it on a 32-bit system, a Dell
Latitude D610. I worked my way through my lubuntu-refurbishing-a-computer
notes that can be found from the bottom of this page:-
https://sites.google.com/site/ianbruntlett/home/free-software and the whole
system worked fine although I had to do a bit of searching to work out how
to get internal Wi-Fi working (install packages firmware-b43-installer".

I was going to log this but when I got to this page -
http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/386/builds - it said the
builds were being rebuilt. What is all that about?

BW,



Ian
