USB 2.0 flash drive install of ubuntu-20.04-desktop-amd64.iso
UNetbootin 677-1~bionic1 
AMD Athlon II X4 640
ASRock N68-S

The first time that I ran the USB install, the live version of Ubuntu
20.04 succeeded in booting without issue. Now each and every time I
attempt to boot the live USB, I get the following display which prevents
me from installing Ubuntu 20.04:

Think that maybe something got corrupted on the flash drive, I redid the 
UNetbootin install, but the issue still remains. MD5 of 
ubuntu-20.04-desktop-amd64.iso checked good before procceeding.
