New Lubuntu LXLE Install issues

[replacement3n1 at aol.com]

In the past, I have previously installed LXLE (32-bit) onto an Asus EEE PC 1005HA successfully. Using the same live USB that successfully completed that installation, I have now tried to install LXLE onto a Dell Inspiron e1505 using all default installation settings without modification.

 

The OS seems to successfully install and reboot upon completion. Once I login a second time and attempt to reboot, the computer never shuts down (the Lubuntu lxle icon appears on the screen and the 5 lights cycle on/off - but the process never completes). If I manually force a shutdown and reboot, I get the following message and prompt:

 

error: unknown filesystem.

grub rescue>

 

I don’t know how to proceed from here. Re-installation from the USB (erasing the SSD & starting over) yields the same result.


Please advise on next steps or corrective actions. I love the LXLE OS, and want to employ it on my old Dell. Any user help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks in advance to all for your consideration.


Sincerely,


Dave Jones
