[Bug 1908820] Re: fresh 20.10 install on Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3 crashed

[Abbas Ali]

I had trouble installing 20.10 on my new "Lenevo Ideapad Gaming 3" with AMD Ryzen 4800, 32GB RAM and 1TB SSD; visited couple of sites and GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset" helped me to successfully install, boot and start using it (OS kept complaining that no video driver was installed). Even without video driver, Ubuntu 20.10 randomly crashed and some background processes could not write to "Disk". I updated the OS (without upgrading graphics driver) but it kept crashing.
I updated/installed NVIDIA graphics driver but still it crashes randomly. Apparently it crashes when OS tries to create a new file on SSD (i.e. whn I download a file in FireFox or simply use text editor to create one). I shall try posting all logs in my next post.
