Hi Sebastien, This is a new Acer AMD A10-based machine with Win 10 on it. Win already had four primary partitions on a 1 TB drive. To make it dual-boot, I shrunk the main partition to 200 GB, then using fdisk in the live install DVD created a 1 GB part for /boot and the rest of the disk for LVM. From an xterm in the live install disk, I used the LVM tools to create LVs for root (16 GB), swap (20 GB), home (10 GB), var (1 GB), and ulocal (for /usr/local, 1 GB). Then I proceeded with the normal install.
Later I retried the install without updated packages and it reported it failed to format the swap LV, gave me an "OK" button which did nothing. Had to use the power switch to get out of that. FWIW, I have downloaded and burned to DVD the 18.04.2 desktop distro and will try to install with it today.
