[Bug 1833246] [NEW] Cannot install Ubuntu on new Thinkpad E490

[Haakon]

Public bug reported:

I have made two different USB sticks with the Ubuntu Startup Disk
creator, but I have not been able to install from them on a new Thinkpad
E490. The first USB stick would not be detected at all, while the second
crashes.
