Yes. If you are asking about the desktop.
Only the server version started using a new method (18.04 got a new installer for the server version and we lost preseeding back then). The desktop, I hope, will follow this new method as it would make it 100% compatible with our installer. [More on this][1].

Looks good. The errors look like those are related to it being an installer and not an installed system(?) – Rinzwind May 12 '20 at 11:56
