Installation breaks on configuring nvidia-340
Jerry:
What are your system specs?

Hi Jerry
I've tried reinstalling without the proprietary drivers. Installation accomplished.
Different problem thought. Very long hang on shutdown, "waiting for swapoff".
And on restart, the kernel doesn't load.

If you insist on having the proprietary driver, you can try (completely remove any nvidia drivers you have tried to install so far first, reboot, then do):
--- Code: ---sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
--- End code ---
but there is no guarantee. The nouveau driver is the most reliable. Very old hardware like yours works better with the included (nouveau) drivers.

Thank you for taking the time to reply to my questions.
I'll try and do a reinstall disabilitating proprietary software sources, in case proprietary drivers came from that option being enabled.
I have no working os to try modifying drivers differently so far, as installation totally breaks.
