Title:
  Installation direct from usb for 20.04 problems

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Dell Inspiron 1501 amd64 4gb memory  Ubuntu 20.04.1

  I had tried Ub 20.04 before so just went straight to the install from
  the usb boot.

  I lost my wired connection and the wifi does not work until b43
  install is done.  However, when I connected my mobile via USB, the
  wired connection appeared.

  Completed the install and included the download external drivers etc.

  When I rebooted, I got the "Oh no.  Something has gone wrong" with the
  log in or out (can't remember which).  Tabbed to it because the mouse
  wasn't working and entered and after a while it returned to the Oh no
  screen.  Couldn't find a way to resolve this so did a hard reboot.

  I think but I'm not certain that this caused a lock problem with the
  SSD because when I tried to use Windows, it reported a disk problem,
  started to do dskchk but reported it couldn't continue because it
  couldn't write boot sector.

  Eventually fixed that problem.

  Next time, I "Tried" Ubuntu before installing.  I don't remember
  exactly what I did but I changed mouse behaviour and appearance of the
  desktop.  Installed again and it worked fine (did not lose the wired
  ethernet connection).

  I don't expect anything to be done about this but decided to report
  the bug in case it sheds light on any other problems.  Sorry I didn't
  do a complete log of what I did but I was trying anything to make my
  system work !
