I've been struggling to get the Ubuntu installer working on my server. Initially, I ran into a black screen before I could even get to the installation part. Once I got there, the installation keeps crashing at different stages, with the first crash happening while I was trying to set up user credentials. I tried disabling secure boot and added some boot parameters like "quiet splash nomodeset acpi=off noaapic". I also skipped the network setup because it's all Ethernet and there's no LAN connection despite the PC having one. I formatted the entire drive for Ubuntu Server and included OpenSSH during installation. My system specs can be found [here](https://www.microcenter.com/product/690095/supermicro-as-530a-bb-mini-tower-workstation). The error report is really lengthy, and as a beginner, I find it overwhelming. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Honestly, it might be worth trying to install Debian instead. If you still want to stick with Ubuntu, maybe you could provide the installation log so we can take a closer look at the issues you're running into.
Hey! It might help to check the installation tips available online. Always remember to perform the installation over an Ethernet connection, and don’t forget to remove the boot media after you're done! Good luck!
Why do so many Linux users suggest switching distros when I'm just trying to solve a problem with mine? Also, where exactly can I find the logs on my USB? It's a lengthy file.
