I have a Dell Latitude D600 (1.4 Ghz Intel Pentium M), 768MB RAM, 60GB hard
drive. I was using Bodhi Linux, but really like the way LXLE looks when I booted to the live DVD/USB stick. I have unsuccessfully tried to install LXLE (12.04.4) from the live USB, using both the install link on the desktop and from the install selection in GRUB. After neither of those worked, I figured out how to create a USB installer with One Button Installer and tried that. It also did not work.
After struggling with this for a while, I downloaded Lubuntu 12.04.4 and installed it without a problem from live USB. I prefer the programs and look and feel of LXLE, so I'd like to get it to work.
Each time when the installer is nearly done with the installation (or after using One Button Installer at booting up, when it is almost done with System Configuration) – which is after setting up a username and password, the installation hangs and never completes.
After it configures the keyboard, etc., A dialog box that says: “System Configuration” and underneath it: “Loading module 'usb-storage' for 'USB storage'”. Sometimes it just hangs there and never moves on. Most of the time the dialog box
and graphical user interface with disappear and be replaced with a
screen full of text lines like this:
[ 280.602040] BUG: unable to handle
kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000041
and that ends with this line:
[ 280.604029] CR2: 0000000000000041
The little cursor indicator is still moving, indicating that the computer is doing something, but it never moves on from that last line. I don't know how to find a copy of the screen dump (or whatever it's called) showing everything from the screen, except for taking a photo and uploading.
I'd love to get this working. It seems that if Lubuntu 12.04.4 works, LXLE 12.04.4 should work.
Thanks for any help.
