  1. To install Pantheon DE on 16.10, run following command in order:

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:elementary-os/daily
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:elementary-os/os-patches
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:elementary-os/testing
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mpstark/elementary-tweaks-daily
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install elementary-theme elementary-icon-theme elementary-default-settings elementary-desktop

    Various user reportedly has encountered couple of bugs, since this procedure will install the unstable version. Other than that, it's completely usable and working fine.

  2. edit the source list of elementary os ppa:

    sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elementary-os-ubuntu-daily-zesty.list

    after that change "zesty" or name of version of ubuntu with "xenial" like as:

    deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/elementary-os/daily/ubuntu xenial main
# deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/elementary-os/daily/ubuntu xenial main

    then:

    sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pantheon-files
