Ah that's definitely tough. I am meaning to try and get Ubuntu working on one of our other laptops but keep slacking on it. One of these days I will though because I need to have confidence in an operating system and abilities instead of the failures of Windows and other back-door systems. It's also one of the things I try not to do, immediately install OS updates lol for bugs like this.

You should try it on via USB first and then have it full installed. Or you can always dual boot which was something I did in the past, but now I am deep into it, there's no going back to windows.

Yeah I was going to try it on a USB first or a dual boot. It's good to have those types of possibilities for it. What size USB does one need to do that or do you need to have an external hard-drive size in order to do it?

I think you can use 16GB but lower is also fine. 7 months ago I wrote this simple tutorial How To Install Lubuntu on Lenovo Ideapad 130S

This installation step by step can be used even for non-lenovo 130S via USB Bootable device.

All you need is
USB
Rufus (there are alternatives but this one will do)
Lubuntu (feel free to use other)
In this article, you will also find guide, tips with troubleshoot but only for Lenovo ideapad 130S.

I hope that will help.
