I'm doing the installing-linux-on-old-laptop-from-my-mother now

It says "System is getting updated" in German. I might have booted into Windows 10 again.

meanwhile, I can tell you more about the system I'm using: it's a very pink Acer "Aspire E 11" with a Intel Celeron 2.16 GHz and a whooping 4 GB of RAM. It has a harddrive, screen and even a keyboard!

last time I installed Linux somewhere was 10+ years ago, I guess.

yeah that was windows 10 installing updates. not sure how that happend, it should boot from the USB stick?

I guess I took the wrong of the two usb slots in the UEFI/BIOS? now we're booting the installation and getting some errors.

ignoring boring command line errors, enjoying the GUI. had to find the right place to click to enter the wifi password. now I got welcomed to "the next universe".

it's not able to change the size of the windows partion. I guess this mean bye bye windows?

(that seems to work. keep your fingers crossed)

you can click a little button and it shows you the log. the log says something about calamari 🦑

fun, the computer said "no bootable device", but now it boots something*

(*the linux I just installed, I guess?)

booted linux, installed updates (via GUI), rebooted, now the computer says "no bootable devices". ugh.

with the usb-stick (I had to "etch" it again because I already formated it haha) I can boot to the lubuntu on the hdd. now I am at a point where I don't really know what to do because I miss the vocabulary to search for help
