Amendment to #24 The following solution worked for me for installation: (see: https://askubuntu.com/questions/845401/installing-lubuntu-16-10-with-encrytion) I booted using 17.04 64 bit and did choose the "Try Lubuntu" option from the boot menu. >From the desktop I have chosen "start menu" -> "system tools" -> "LXTerminal" In the terminal I issued: sudo swapoff --all sudo apt-get install lvm2 answer Y to continue install of lvm2 After completion I started the installer icon from the desktop and the installation ran smoothly.
BUT AFTER REBOOT I RAN INTO CONSOLE-ONLY MODE. BusyBox v1.22.1 (Ubuntu 1:1.22.0-19ubuntu2) build-in shell (ash) Perhaps this part of the solution does help someone else. Good Luck! I am pretty fed up by now. Perhaps I might come back at a later point in time.
