Set Up Ubuntu Linux on a Real Machine

After you have followed this steps you can start with the installation of Ubuntu.

You need to create a bootable USB stick. For that I use balenaEtcher.
Now you can boot from the USB stick and install Ubuntu.


I choose the following settings:

  • Minimal installation
  • Download updates while installing Ubuntu
  • Install third-party software for graphics and Wi-Fi hardware and additional media formats
  • Erase disk and install Ubuntu (with disk encryption)

After the installation you have to reboot your machine and log in with your user.
Wait a moment till the system is ready.

  • Don't send anonymous system usage data to Canonical
  • Don't use location services
  • Install the updates the upcoming dialog asks you for
  • Reboot your machine

Open a terminal, then...
Turn off sending system information to Canonical:

ubuntu-report -f send no

Turn off package popularity contest:

sudo apt remove popularity-contest

Turn off automatic bug reporting:

Settings > Privacy > Problem Reporting > Off

Reboot your machine from terminal:

reboot

For the rest of the installation process I use my Ansible Playbook.
