Cannot get it to work on Ubuntu Server 64-bit 20.04 (with Xubuntu desktop) #34

I have been trying to get this to work on a new install of Ubuntu server 64-bit 20.04 (with Xubuntu desktop) on a Raspberry Pi 3B (3.5 display) and I cannot.

It seems that the paths are different (/boot/firmware instead of just /boot), but even after making manual changes the device gets stuck and won't boot.

Anyone else able to get it to work PI3B?

If anyone is looking to get the screen to work specifically on RPI3b with Ubuntu 20.04 64-bit, I was able to get it to work.
