Bug Description
I have an HP ZBook 15 G3 with two graphic cards, an integrated Intel HD 530 and an NVIDIA Quadro M2000M (GM107GLM). Disk is SSD.
I intend to run Kubuntu with the Ubuntu Studio package, but could not install Kubuntu 20.04.1. Booting the computer with the USB image provided me with a blank black screen and whirring GPU fans. No interaction possible except forcing shutdown by pressing the power button for a long time.
Installing Ubuntu Studio 20.04.1 went fine.

It turns out this is because of a broken USB stick. Working while using Ubuntu Studio, breaking somewhere in the process of 'burning' Kubuntu. With a new USB, installation works as expected.
