I tried installing the deb files

linux-headers-5.4.0-050400rc8_5.4.0-050400rc8.201911171930_all.deb
linux-headers-5.4.0-050400rc8-generic_5.4.0-050400rc8.201911171930_amd64.deb
linux-image-unsigned-5.4.0-050400rc8-generic_5.4.0-050400rc8.201911171930_amd64.deb
linux-modules-5.4.0-050400rc8-generic_5.4.0-050400rc8.201911171930_amd64.deb

and booting with the new kernel but my system did not seem to be wholly compatible. The proprietary nvidia drivers I am using (nvidia-driver-440 off of the Ubuntu graphics-drivers ppa) did not seem to be compatible with these kernel debs. I was unable to get to the Gnome desktop when trying to use nouveau drivers with kernel 5.4.0. I will try again and see if I can get to the desktop when I get a chance to debug the boot process in a day or two.
