With that done, I shut down VirtualBox and used the steps described in another post to construct a VMware VM around its VMDK file. When it was done, I ran a few commands (somewhat redundant, but worth keeping together, and generally consistent with what appeared to be the best guidance) to update it as needed: sudo apt update On reboot, it said there were upgrades available. When the Lubuntu VM finished installing in VirtualBox, I rebooted the VM as it seemed to desire. Whatever the original issue was, it seemed to be entirely within VMware. The installation finished without any problems. In that process, I chose to create a VMDK rather than the default VDI file. There wasn’t an obvious solution.Īs a partial, temporary workaround, I shut down VMware and created the VM in VirtualBox instead. I ran searches to try to figure out the problem. At one point, the effort took over the host (Windows 10) system’s display - blacking it out and then resizing it to a much coarser resolution. It seemed the problem might be larger than just the Internet connection. I tried changing the VM’s network settings I tried proceeding through the installation anyway and I also tried installing Lubuntu 21.10 instead. But since I had some other processes running and did not want to interrupt them, I tried some other approaches. The real solution, for me, was simply to reboot the host system. Apparently it was the specific reason why the VM did not satisfy installation requirements. That last line was highlighted in yellow. The system is not connected to the Internet. Installation can continue, but some features might be disabled. This computer does not satisfy some of the recommended requirements for installing Lubuntu 20.04 LTS.

It said, “Welcome to the Lubuntu installer.” Then, a moment later, it said this: Its desktop offered an icon, “Install Lubuntu 20.04 LTS.” I double-clicked on that.

I was installing Lubuntu in a virtual machine (VM) in VMware Workstation Player.
