PROBLEM:  attempted to install ubuntu 20.04 with windows 10.  stops 3/4 of the way through.
          I think the problem is the partitioning of the drive, or the fact that I am using a
          gaming computer. I had ben running only UBUNTU on this computer for over a year.


Computer:  MSI X470,  AMD® Ryzen 5 1600 six-core processor,  Memory: 16
GB

New: 1.0 TB Hard disk:  WDC WD10EZEX-00RKKA0

Unplugged old drives.  Only the new drive connected.

Successfully installed windows 10 from CD.

Within Windows:  Disabled fast startup.
                 Disabled secure boot.
                 Shrunk Drive C by 1/2 to make free space for Linux.

I ran Ubuntu 20.04 from a USB pen drive and selected INSTALL.

While installing,  I created 3 new Linux partitions:  /dev/sda2,  24 GB, Ext4, / target
                                                      /dev/sda5, 471 GB, Ext4, /home target
                                                      /dev/sda6,  17 MB, Linux Swap

Continued installation of UBUNTU 20.04 :  Failed
