[15:50] <maximo> hello
[15:50] <maximo> anyone home?
[16:21] <itu> versuche gerade lubuntu 20.4 zu installieren - bricht jedesmal ab wegen "sfdisk"
 du hast einen deutschen Kanal unter lubuntu.me/links (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) <itu> versuche gerade lubuntu 20.4 zu installieren - bricht jedesmal ab wegen "sfdisk")
[16:24] <itu> oh, sorry
 This is english support
[16:25] <itu> i tried to install lubuntu 20.4 - always failing because of "sfdisk" 
[17:14] <itu> it crashed again with sfdisk ....
[17:20] <itu> but now looks like it has managed
 You have the option to do partitions with kde partition manager?
 What is the exit of launching installation with sudo calamares -d?
[17:28] <itu> screen-saver should not show up when installing ...
[17:28] <itu> "exit of launching installation"?
[17:30] <itu> (installer  now saying "all done" )
[17:33] <itu> now hangs after first reboot ...
 With sudo calamares -d? (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) <itu> "exit of launching installation"?)
 Have you tried another usb?
[18:30] <itu> another usb?
[19:25] <tomreyn> itu: a different usb storage as an installer medium
[19:25] <tomreyn> possibly yours is broken
[19:26] <tomreyn> something else you should test is (a) whether the .iso did download properly and (b) whether it was properly written to the installer media. compare checksums for both tests.
[19:27] <tomreyn> a free graphical interface application which can do (b) is balena etcher - it works on all major operating systems.
[19:38] <itu> looks like this old laptop has some special problems, notably getting quite hot
[19:49] <tomreyn> that's pretty common with older laptops, unless you clean them. but even then, they can run hotter now than they used to, due to cpu bug mitigations
[20:24] <itu> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/20.04.1/release/SHA256SUMS   has checksum of  20.04.2  .... fail   !?!
[20:25] <itu> ok , good info (about hotness-issues)
[20:41] <itu> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/20.04.1/release/MD5SUMS  :-/ 
[20:46] <itu>  
[20:46] <tomreyn> itu: i'm afraid i don't understand what you're meaning to say. if you have another question, can you ask it differently?
[20:47] <itu> hmm
[20:48] <tomreyn> md5 is considered weak / broken, that's probably why you cna only find an SHA-2 checksum
[20:49] <itu> the above URL is about 20.04.one  but the content is about   lubuntu-20.04.two
[20:50] <tomreyn> yes, i just noticed this as well. do you need the older installer for some reason?
[20:50] <itu> :-/
[20:51] <tomreyn> sorry to see you're unhappy, is there a way to change this?
[20:52] <itu> ok ... i'll download the freshest lubuntu TLS now
[20:54] <itu> (still want to mention that i still use scripts for re-reading images from usb-stick and then check them ....) 
[20:56] <tomreyn> so you're saying you had verified that you had both downloaded a byte exact copy of lubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso and had also verified that this was written byte exactly to the installer storage?
[20:58] <tomreyn> https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2463290&page=2&p=14043095#post14043095 seems to explain why the older 20.04 point releases are no longer available from cdimage.ubuntu.com
[21:03] <tomreyn> and the boothole issue, as well as it's early mitigation techniques (which caused some systems to fail to boot) could indeed be what you ran into.
[21:12] <itu> ok
