24.04 LTS Installation failed on RPI5

[M Gordon]

I had RaspiOS Debian 12 bookworm desktop running on my 8GB Raspberry Pi 5. I'm attempting to switch to the RPi version of Ubuntu Desktop 24.04 LTS. I've created an install microSD card with raspi-imager and selected Other OS then Ubuntu Desktop 24.04 LTS.

After picking English, Los Angeles, etc., then I get to the point where I input details to name the host and create my user account, click next and get Installation Failed. I click OK, some text flashes by fast, then get a basic sign-in screen but can't sign in. It won't accept the username and password I selected, and ubuntu/ubuntu. I tried a terminal session on tty2 to see if I could check any logs but again, no working username/password.

In case it was some sort of download error with raspi-imager, I downloaded the "ubuntu-24.04-preinstalled-desktop-arm64+raspi.img.xz" file and used Rufus to write that to the install media. The microSDXC card is a brand new Samsung 256GB Pro Plus A2 V30.

What do I do now?

Got the auto comment about lack of package. Looked at Finding the Right Package. It happens during the installation of Ubuntu 24.04 LTS so it looks like the right package is ubiquity.
