As I was trying to install and start the practical part of my TB, I tried to install Ubuntu 20.04 on the computer the school gave me.

I achieved after some tweaking to get the GRUB screen and as soon as I hit the option to install or try Ubuntu, it freezes and I cannot do anything.

I tried installing Windows and Manjaro to see if it was a computer issue but I could install them, note that I cannot boot into Manjaro.

Do any of you have the same issue ?

I just found the issue…

You need to disable the “UEFI boot” in the Boot settings in the BIOS and it works.
