Lubuntu keeps suspend system while installing

I am trying to install the 32 bit version of Lubuntu 15.10 on a Dell Inspiron 700m. I have to use boot option forcepae during the install, because the CPU is a Intel Centrino. While installing, my system keeps sleeping due to some kind of error I believe. In the command output all it says is that the system is going to suspend.

A better option is to disable suspend ability in lubuntu with settingHandleSuspendKey and HandleLidSwitch to ignore in /etc/systemd/logind.conf.

Notice, You have to delete the # symbol at the beginning of the line.

This has the advantages, that the pc is not running on full power the whole time (fan on max), special hardware like pcmcia cards are working, the battery symbol is shown and the pc turns off if you shut down it.

The way that worked for me (after all other suggestions failed) was to use the minimal install process and choose the command line install option.

This could be a graphics compatibility issue, please try to press the shift key just before the install screen pops up. Then choose the language of your choice. Next you should press F6 and select nomodeset from the options. Here are the steps in details: graphics compatibility. Hopefully this time it will install without issues. See BootOptions for a detailed explanation.
