having ubuntu installation issues. Not sure how to extract logs from that machine so I can use them to get more help from another machine
opened a terminal during installation process, and cat /var/log/syslog shows what I probably want to share, but how? wget and wifi is working just fine on that machine
 
1:06 PM
I've managed to make a small server on my current machine to receive the logs, that I could make a pastebin from: pastebin.com/xHdncmHK
the installation is on an Acer Nitro 5, gets stuck at "almost finished copying files" for over 40 minutes
secure boot mode is disabled, fast boot mode too, using AHCI mode, tried adding nomodeset in the grub menu, although the line is different than what I saw online: linux /casper/vmlinuz file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed maybe-ubiquity quiet splash ---. Usually the --- are not there. Last time I added nomodeset right after splash, now I'll try after ---
 
1:31 PM
also tried the noacpi grub option, as per askubuntu.com/questions/1241795/…
 
@towc please ask a question on the main site where you can collect all relevant information and where far more people will see it and be able to help you. Also, that way, any help you receive will be useful to future users with similar problems.
 
Thanks! :)

News: Apt in 21.04 will include Phased Updates: discourse.ubuntu.com/t/phased-updates-in-apt-in-21-04/20345. So servers are getting it, too.
