[xubuntu-users] Is it safe to install Xubuntu 21.04 on a Thinkpad T420 i5?

[Phil]

This is my first question to this list.

I've been a long time user of another flavour of Linux and I'm wondering 
about the wisdom of installing Xubuntu 21.04 on my ageing laptop bearing 
in mind that Canonical has warned against upgrading to 21.04 because the 
possibility of booting into a black screen.

I have Xubuntu 21.04 on a bootable USB stick so I'm ready to go, but 
only if it's safe to do so.
