Does your computer support 64-bit os? What happened when you tried to boot 20.04? You can try the 32-bit version of Ubuntu 18.04 (it will be supported until 2023). – FedKad Sep 27 '20 at 16:47

1Ubuntu should run, but Lubuntu would be better. It is a 64 bit chip. What brand/model laptop. Some need settings. Is UEFI updated to latest available from vendor? – oldfred Sep 27 '20 at 16:53

Dell typically needs UEFI update, if SSD also SSD firmware update. It needs UEFI setting for drives changed to AHCI, not Intel RST nor RAID. But if dual booting with Windows you must first install AHCI drivers into Windows or it will not boot. Often better to have UEFI Secure boot off. And UEFI fast boot off, as that assumes no system changes & you are changing system. https://askubuntu.com/questions/1191031/installation-on-new-laptop-dell-inspiron-5491-freezes – oldfred Sep 27 '20 at 18:31
