Or are you saying the purple screen reappears in Ubuntu 18.04 and 19.10,
but in 20.04 the BIOS logo goes black and then comes back? The latter is
actually bug 1836858.

So I will assume this is bug 1836858 in 20.04 unless you can take a
video of 20.04 showing a purple screen between two BIOS logos. In Ubuntu
19.10 and earlier it was bug 1861470.

Title:
  Dell PC shows boot logo twice whenever Ubuntu boots up.

Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The Dell logo is tied to the BIOS/UEFI. It should only appear when the
  system is powering on. However, whenever I turn my PC on, the Dell
  logo appears, and then a purple screen appears, but then the machine
  returns to the Dell Logo before actually booting up.

  This is a problem and it only happens on UEFI, regardless of whether
  secure boot is enabled, disabled, PTT is enabled or disabled.

  The boot logo needs to only appear once, yet it does it twice whenever
  I boot up ubuntu 18.04, 19.10, and even the latest version of 20.04.

  Please address this issue.

  Thank you.
