Dimitri, I note your comment #106 about secureboot patches upstream. If
I recall correctly, a linux security update came down through Ubuntu
Updater about the same time or just prior to the LTS 20.04.1 updates in
mid September. A number of issues with LTS 20.04.1 appeared following
two "batches"
Additional observation: I've tried using Ubuntu LTS 20.04 download
images from July and August, selecting the option to install third party
drivers. These images worked flawlessly at the end of the summer. But
since the mid-September updates, even these earlier iso's of Ubuntu LTS
20.04 Desktop
With reference to post #132 above: If this is relevant to this issue
I also am experiencing problems with switching drivers for the device on
my systems that uses (or can use) a Ubuntu third party driver.
Specifically nVidia for the GeForce 940MX. Changing between nVidia
driver versions (all
The fix for 1872159 (spinning logo hang on startup) has allowed me to
turn the splash screen back on; and this error is not visible. I do,
though, encourage completion of the fix for it since it rears its head
when the splash screens have to be disabled.

I am seeing much better stability of the Ubuntu distro today. I am
working with a reinstallation from a 20.04.1 image from late August; I
loaded it about a week ago hoping to recover from the 4 bugs I've been
dealing with but still had problems. Today I ran Ubuntu Update AND went
back to the open
These bugs started with a Ubuntu update just prior to Sept 14 (see post
103 above). By the 14th, there were initramfs problems on startup and
the hang on spinning circle which forced hard power downs.
Then on Sept 24, more updates installed including updates to grub,
*nvidia drivers*, and some
I already used the daily image; and yes I got the (re)installation to
complete without crashing. BUT the freshly (re)installed Ubuntu system
remained unstable and therefore unusable due to other bugs that were
introduced or re-introduced by the two Ubuntu Updater packages pushed
out since
I should add that, in researching old posts on these issues, I gather
that nVidia driver(s) have been a factor; so note that the last Ubuntu
Updater package prior to all this did also include an update to the
nVidia driver package.

Sorry to say that I tried to install from images from both May and June
of this year, obviously 20.04. Both failed with the same crash. And,
like you, I need nvidia and other specific drivers.
Even if you can get past the crash, other changes that have been made since
mid-September are wreaking
Note that this bug also affects efforts to install older images,
including 20.04 from May and June of this year: those installs crash
also with this same error. This matters, because the bugs introduced by
Updater changes since mid-September have made Ubuntu troublesome and
unstable. Bugs that
Continues to occur even once the bug 1871268 install crash has been
dealt with (installing from latest daily-live current image). So affects
even a fresh install. Seemed to appear in mid-September updates along
with recurrence of bug 1872159, the dreaded spinning Ubuntu logo hang on
startup. So a
