Comment 24 for bug 1794922

installed lubuntu 18.04.1 on dell 755 without updates

this was install mentioned in #13 of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/cosmic/+source/plymouth/+bug/1794292 - oct 5 where I incorrectly installed x86_64 without realizing it :(

i did NOT format /, and used existing /home from #13 (of other #1794292)
rebooted post install, pointed sources to my ISP's ubuntu mirror, dist-upgrade & reboot

added canonical kernel ppa; changed [ppa] source to point to cosmic; update & install kernel. reboot & login (normally!)
