3 years ago Turns out this is a display issue.
The non-live 18.04 of arm64 ubuntu server installation doesn't work when the 'Display' setting is 'Full Graphics'. It needs to be 'Console only'. Then, once the server is installed the setting can be reverted back to 'Full Graphics'.
Could be worth mentioning in the docs.

Describe the issue When trying to launch the Ubuntu 18.04 server install, the process seemly hangs after selecting the 'Install Ubuntu Server' option in the Grub menu. Only left with a blank screen and a blinking cursor, but no errors or warnings. I have left it in this state for over an hour - in case it was just being slow - with no progress.
I used the "ubuntu-18.04.5-server-arm64.iso" (SHA256 checks out) and the same settings used with a 20.04 install as specified here: https://mac.getutm.app/gallery/ubuntu-20-04
The 20.04 install worked fine.
My suspicion is that it is due to a difference in how the ubuntu images were created as the 20.04 one is a 'live' ISO whereas the 18.04 is not. I'm trying to get to the bottom of what the difference between the two is.
