[ubuntu-studio-users] Problem with Asus FX505 Tuf Gaming laptop after installing 20.04

[Tomas Pavelka]

It seems like harddisk configuration problem if live was ok. I think it's
not good idea installing linux on Win optimized laptop... (this is my
personal theory, I am not programmer, i use Ubuntu studio since 8.04, but
always as clean installation on  my self building PCs, on my HP laptops are
Win10).
