I am seeing much better stability of the Ubuntu distro today. I am working with a reinstallation from a 20.04.1 image from late August; I loaded it about a week ago hoping to recover from the 4 bugs I've been dealing with but still had problems. Today I ran Ubuntu Update AND went back to the open source nVidia driver (this is a T570 with both Intel and nVidia graphics).

I urge working with nVidia: their driver update near the end of September seemed to be the final straw in all of this, and making sure that driver is stable seems important to ensure that the installer is able to deliver a stable system. Otherwise these installation failures and stability problems may continue to haunt us.
