I've now found that I have a 32-bit processor, so I can't install 64-bit Linux Lite and set up Google Drive sync through Grive, which is a issue for me.  I assume that this will still be a problem with the next release of LL, or are you aware of any developments that may solve it?

In the meantime, I'll reinstall the 32-bit.

It won't be a problem in the next release. But it is Google, they can change their mind at anytime. Cheers.

Thanks Valtam - I'll look forward to the new release.

Sorry to bother you again, but I need more advice about reinstallation.

I want to keep Windows and replace the existing corrupt Linux Lite in its existing partition.  I'm now reinstalling, but it does not give me this as a standard option:

When I select the first option, it tries to set up another partition to install LL alongside the existing LL and Windows.  The third option takes me to:

At this point, I am out of my depth.  What should I do to replace the existing LL installation?

Highlight /dev/sda5 and click Change, choose to format on /. Leave the rest.

I've done that, selecting "use as" Ext 4.  When I click "Install now" I get message "No root file system is defined. Please correct this from the partitioning menu".  How do I do that?
