Hi Dennis,

usually when using mailing lists, we don't post HTML and do some
research on our own, since Linux is an OS that asks for
self-responsibility.

What did you make with the free space, after deleting the partition?
If you enlarged/moved the Lubuntu boot partition you need to reinstall
grub. And I mean grub, not the grub package.

OTOH if you search the web for

Could not write bytes: broken pipe

you get lot of links that lead to something else, seemingly graphics
drivers need to be reinstalled. IOW Search the web for 

Could not write bytes: broken pipe

or assumed you moved the boot partition search the web for

install grub

and

chroot install grub

I did not verify the links, but it's unlikely that they aren't ok.
If this shouldn't work or if you don't understand something ask again.
If you were able to solve the issue, mark the thread/subject as [solved]
and share how you was able to fix it.

Regards,
Ralf
