Thanks for all of your help along the way with this. The extra use that I'm getting out of this PC is all due to Linux Lite. What is the best way to remove the Linux Lite 4.8.0 kernel ?

As Linux Lite has made this PC usable again I can live with any limitations that come with using the 4.4 kernel. If in the future I have to give up 4.4 for some reason the PC will still be viable, just without the card reader. Thanks for all of your help.

I would second this -- you have a working kernel; this is the way it is sometimes - I too have systems that don't make use of the newer stuff.
If anything you could try removing 4.8 as long as dont attempt to boot to it your fine.....

Neither the Escape key, or the Shift key would bring up the Grub menu. In searching for a solution I discovered Grub Customizer. I installed it and what I found, to borrow a quote from Alice, made me, "Curiouser and Curiouser."

In addition to 3 different 5.4.0 Linux kernel entries, there is a Linux Lite 4.8.0 kernel entry as well as an Ubuntu 4.4.0 kernel entry. I'm guessing that the LL 4.8 kernel is from one of the Lite Tweaks or CLI attempts. The Ubuntu 4.4 kernel would have to be from the attempt made with the links you provided, even though the install message said there were errors.

I checked the box in Grub Customizer for the menu to show, rebooted, and chose the Ubuntu 4.4.0 kernel at boot. After booting I verified that 4.4.0 was in use. I then tried the card reader, and it worked. There do not appear to be any broken packages. Is there anything specific that I should do, or check for, to find any potential problems ?

A side note, the PC will not boot when choosing the LL 4.8 kernel.
