  • 'Test memory' (only on BIOS systems)
  • The system boots properly and loads the installer displaying the Welcome dialog with language selection and 'Try Ubuntu' and 'Install Ubuntu' buttons
    Click on the release notes hyperlink to confirm that a browser launches and you are taken to the release notes discourse page.
    Click on the Install Ubuntu button
    The 'Keyboard layout' screen appears
    The proposed keyboard corresponds with your keyboard
    Select your keyboard layout and click on Continue
    The 'Updates and other software' screen is displayed
    On the screen 'Updates and other software', note the availability of the following components
    Available options should represent the state of your system accurately
    • (If network is available) 'Download updates while installing Ubuntu'
    • (If on a 'laptop') 'Is plugged to a power source'
    • 'Install third-party software...' option available
    Click on the Continue button
    The 'Installation type' screen is displayed
    Select Something Else
    A screen showing the current hard disks and partition layouts is displayed
    Select the drive you wish to partition and use the Add '+', Change 'Change...', and Delete '-' buttons to create your desired scheme
    The screen updates showing your desired partitions and mount points

    dell [optiplex] 755 (c2d-e8300, 8gb, amd/ati radeon rv610/radeon hd2400 pro/xt)
    (non-EFI box without EFI partition)
    system had two partitions sda1 & sda2 (I believe lubuntu full disk followed by install-alongside).. I selected to replace (with format) SDA1
    I'd NOT normally use format for this 'upgrade via re-install' option but given I didn't check the sda1 (lubuntu yesterday I believe) it'll be cleaner for this install with format.
    reboot, unpretty-grub but booting new hirsute system...
    new ubuntu desktop looks good; adjusted monitor setup to match my landscape+portrait..; other checks all good so logout
    reboot, login to other lubuntu hirsute & it looks exactly as it should :)
