A follow on ...
On a different computer (this one, my normal Intel Atom based desktop) I have several partitions and rotate through them as new LL versions appear. I tend to do a fresh installation in a re-formatted old partition then copy forward anything I want - mainly /home stuff. I was using LL3.0 but getting errors on trying to update/upgrade so have just installed 3.2 on another partition. Possibly significant (but possibly not) is that I had formatted and labeled this partition, shut down and then done the install without re-formatting. The Internet was connected and optional extras (but not "do updates") ticked. The same installation USB stick as in my previous post (MD5sum checked) was used.
Before following on with updates I checked /etc/apt/sources.list.d and find that
linuxlite.list says deb http://repo.linuxliteos.com/linuxlite/ xenial main
but
linuxlite.list.save has deb http://repo.linuxliteos.com/linuxlite/ citrine main
Clicking Install Updates on the welcome screen gave "Error - coudn't fetch the package cache information lists"
As on my old Dell laptop, an update following changing "xenial" to "citrine" in linuxlite.list worked.
