So I have installed lubuntu on two of my laptops and they did wonders for them, so I decided to dig out my old laptop from '05 and breathe life back into it. When I tried to install lubuntu onto it through a LiveUSB though (same one I installed on both of my previous two), I get an error I don't know how to search up.

The installer's desktop mode on the laptop works fine, but when I try to run the actual installer, it goes through everything then after I choose to install with updates, I get the attached error. When I try to close the error window or press "OK", it just pops back up, and I can't shut off the installer, has anyone ever encountered this before?

What happens if you don't select the update while installing and download third-party software options? Both those can be done after a successful install.

Haha, awesome! That's what I did my very first time but it froze, this time I tried again and it worked! Thanks man. Is there any package or list of the third party applications that come with lubuntu that I can download to install?

Just install the lubuntu-restricted-extras package and you'll get just about all you are likely to need. And update the whole system as well, of course.
