This forum is packed with useful tech resources when it comes to solving a problem. Here's how my new 3.4 installation went today.
Installer was crashing everytime just before the end of the process, so I started poking around the LL forum. And thanks to an old Coastie post, I read that sometime LL ends up being installed anyway even after a crash message. So I tried installing LL3.0 alongside LL2.8 on my 10-year old Compaq Notebook.
To be sure, the installer crashed but I also noticed that the partitioning was completed. I couldn't check my Grub menu since I don't see it when I boot up. But again, thanks to a 2015 post here, I found out how to get back the Grub screen. And there it was! LL 3.0 installed properly. A bit of a rocky road, but the results make me very happy! The last step, updating from 3.0 to 3.4 barely took 36 minutes and 522MB :-D
