Also keep in mind there is a major version update coming soon, allegedly in

regarding " solid non-ubuntu ubuntu that without ..."
Things have changed in the past years for good. I installed last summer from
scratch on USB stick (used Debian) then put on top TDE ... I didn't have to
do anything to make it work - it worked out of the box. I booted from the
USB to see if a newly bought notebook would work, before repartitioning and
resizing. Actually this is why I wanted to have a more modern USB resque
disk. I then copied the USB to the newly allocated partition and it worked
again without an issue (dual boot and EFI).
Of course there are customizations and procedures to be applied applied, but
I consider them as standard - I mean like configure desktop etc.
The cool thing is, you could reuse your home directory and all the tde
configuration if you wish - and it looks and works the same as on the
original PC.
