The following errors can be found in UbiquitySyslog.txt which was
automatically attached to this bug report:

Dec 30 17:41:05 lubuntu kernel: [  621.176253] SQUASHFS error: zlib decompression failed, data probably corrupt
Dec 30 17:41:05 lubuntu kernel: [  621.176260] SQUASHFS error: squashfs_read_data failed to read block 0x1853d16

It's possible you had a bad write to your media (the installer treats
all media as being a CDROM) or for some other reason its contents could
not be read correctly. If you're still having problems please try the
option to check the integrity of the image from the installer boot menu,
and if this confirms that the media is corrupt, try re-writing and/or
re-downloading it.

However, the bug description shows you were trying to install Lubuntu
18.04 (and not 20.04) which is no longer supported by the Lubuntu
community. See https://lubuntu.me/downloads/ for the currently supported
releases of Lubuntu.
