Everything was going fine -- I was installing from a usb stick -- and then I got an error message that the install failed and (something-something) about the hard drive and maybe (something-something) needing a cooler environment?:confused:
Then a window popped up saying something about "after you close this window you can file a bug report..." but I couldn't close the window. I finally had to just turn off the machine. I let it "cool off" for a while but when I turned it back on, it wouldn't go past the ThinkPad screen. I unplugged, removed battery, put everything back, same result. I have not tried standing on my head.
I had Trusty 14.04 installed, but wanted to switch to Xubuntu and just use the laptop with a LAMP installed to design WordPress sites and do some writing.
Assume I know very little more than the greenest noob.
