I was wondering about the errors generated by a package update. After
reinstalling the ppa, these are the errors that remain:

I downloaded, burned, and booted the new Alpha2, but it died along the way
with a black screen. No error messages preceded its death. Is there a
boot/install option that will spew those progress messages across the screen
so I may have a clue about the cause of death?

Hi Lane,
Pick the option (I forget which key.. F4? F6?) at the grub menu, and select
nomodeset to add to the boot options. That's what worked for me and many
others.

Whoops, I meant at the CD boot menu. Once it's installed, this nomodeset
also needs to be added to the grub menu for subsequent boots.

Thanks, Andrew. When the nomodeset didn't work, I tried that post's second
option:
i915.modeset=0 xforcevesa
but it stopped at the same place, although with a small font.

Have you checked the CD for defects?

No, but I just did, and it's correct.

Yes, 8.

No, don't know how. How does one do that?

When you see the First boot screen, press pace and you will get the normal
text boot screen. You can now test the CD for defects. A slow burn and MD5
success will pretty much garuntee this but it's worth a test. The same
screen can test the ram.

If I recall, the routine for testing the CD that is on the CD will report
failure.

A fresh CD did the trick! I'm typing this in Lubuntu 10.10. I didn't have to
add anything to the command line to do the install.
Now to see about installing the nVidia video
Glad to be of help, at least the documents are read occasionally ;-)
you may also want to check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Developers#Missing
key for lubuntu ppa As that is another known little gremlin in the system.
