Just installed Linux Lite on my daughters  Sony Varo Netbook which originally ran Windows 7 Starter 32 bit (a woeful operating system). As recommended I checked the Varos hardware against LL configuration database and tried LL using a distro burned to a USB stick – everything worked first time! I did compare LL with Lubuntu  ( a bit stark) and Mint Mate and found LL to be the right combination of snappy performance (within the limits of an Intel Atom processor), leanness and features – well done Jerry and the team.

Couple of things  to note I found Etcher would not boot up on my Win10 laptop so burned my LL distro using Rufus. Also Lubuntu kept corrupting its distro on the USB stick after a couple of hours  running the live distro – is this a known problem with Ubuntu/Debian based distos?

I now have a happy 8 year old who can watch kids Youtube and work on her homework without borrowing Dads laptop.

Do not forget PlayonLinux if she wants to run Windoze programs

Also Lubuntu kept corrupting its distro on the USB stick after a couple of hours  running the live distro – is this a known problem with Ubuntu/Debian based distos?
No it is nota known problem though I did try to install LLbuntu never worked so I ditched it and installed Manjaro.

Why do you not change the USB to readonly see if that works?
Inventor of Windows 12 Lite for Windows 7 users who want to remember the worlds worst operating system they have switched off from the internet and dual boot using Windows 12 Lite no ads no waiting when Updates are forced when you want to work. No virus no ransomware and 3 times faster than Windoze.
