Hi LUGers,

So we just got Ubuntu 20.04.2 and now this.
> *The Ubuntu team have issued a hot fix for the recently released 
> Ubuntu 20.04.2 media. The new fix, called 20.04.2.0, corrects an issue 
> where the Ubiquity system installer could fail to properly install the 
> Linux kernel on a new system. "Shortly after the release of Ubuntu 
> 20.04.2, on Thursday February 4 2021, a regression was discovered 
> which means that on certain systems and under certain specific 
> conditions the Ubuntu installer can fail to install a Linux kernel. 
> This renders the system unable to boot. After carefully analyzing the 
> impact of this regression, the release team took the decision to 
> reissue images of 20.04.2 with a corrected version of the installer. 
> These images are now available, versioned as 20.04.2.0." Details on 
> the bug and affected Ubuntu community flavours can be found in this 
> mailing list post. *
