Thanks again for your response.
I was able to get through the install on my last try.
I did end up redoing the partition map by hand, as two failed installs
had left two Linux root partitions and two swap partitions laying around.
I also did NOT click the box to have my own account encrypted.
The install went just fine.
I can dual boot now. The first time through booting XP I did have to run
all the CHKDSK stuff, but it worked.
Without question this limited little machine runs better on Linux Lite than XP,
so I am pleased to have finally gotten through the install.
And I can still access the original user files.
