[Bug 1951441] [NEW] Ubuntu Focal install crashed

[haraldthi]

Public bug reported:

Windows 10 one day took over my computer during an update, and I haven't been able to get it back. Seems it took over my boot partition, something I don't actually enjoy.
So I tried a reinstall from scratch. I rely on Nvidia drivers quite a lot, and have the experience that stable releases work best for that.
I did some minor changes to the partitions: Joined the root and var partitions into a single partition, as one of them got full and the other was left mostly unused. The /usr partition was just reformatted in the same place, while I rather like to keep my home partition as it is unformatted. Then I have a number of disks set up as software raid for media.
All partitions using btrfs.
That didn't work, obviously?
