Jeffry, I have officially approved hardware (Dell Vostro laptop, see here Ubuntu HCL: https://ubuntu.com/certified/202006-27974) for my Ubuntu 20.04. And even Ubuntu already was there, prepared by Dell (with OEM 5.10 kernel, not default 5.6 or 5.8):

uname -a
Linux DV5301 5.10.0-1038-oem #40-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 16 15:08:30 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=20.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=focal
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS"

So, first - probably it may be some different with OEM kernel, instead of officially shipped kernel in 20.04 disro ISO.
Second - my laptop has very fast SSD device, but even there AIDE was running around an hour. So If you have, for example, ordinary disk, such as SATA or something like, it seemed to me, it may take long time to wait 'till AIDE finishes check.
