Hour + download of Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Am I doing something wrong?

Ask Ubuntu Asked by FreelanceBean02 on December 19, 2021

I’m new to Linux, and thought it’d be interesting to try it out. I read through some forums on how to install and dual boot it properly. Although, I’ve been having issues during the installation process. Once I get to Updates and other software, and select what was recommended on the Ubuntu website, it just loads forever. I have slow internet, about 55Mbps, maybe that’s what the hangup is. I really don’t know, any help is appreciated.

One Answer

Case 1) You have installed Ubuntu and then trying to update softwares:

In the resources tab of GNOME System Monitor, you can see the network usage. There you can check, whether the network is really the issue.

Case 2) You are trying to install latest software updates during installation:

Do not do it during installation time, install it without updates. Once you have a fully working system, then try to update. You will be in a position to diagnose it better.

Could you please enlighten where on Ubuntu website is the list of recommended softwares that you have indicated.

Edit: Do not check "Install this third-party software" either, as this also downloads from internet.
