Why don't you just install x86 version?
Hi all,
I'm trying to setup Ubuntu on an Arm-based mac via the QEMU emulator
(wrapped in a gui called UTM) and although I can set-up 20.04 without
any problem, I can't do the same with 18.04.
I do notice that server versions - the only ones available for Arm -
differ in their filenames:
ubuntu-18.04.5-server-arm64.iso
ubuntu-20.04.2-live-server-arm64.iso
I also note that the AMD64 version of 18.04 comes in 'live' and non-live >>> versions.
ubuntu-18.04.4-live-server-amd64.iso
ubuntu-18.04.4-server-amd64.iso
Does anyone know what the difference is between them and how that would
impact running them in a virtual/emulated environment, please?
Or even better is there a live version of the Arm build anywhere?
Thanks!
Because it doesn't work on the new Arm Macs. I did try just as a double-check, but it wouldn't recognise the x86 ISO.
BTW I can't just use 20.04 as I need 18.04 for a specific project.

arm64 != amd64
Both ARM and x86-64 versions are here, but there's no "live" server one.
https://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/ubuntu-ports-releases/18.04.5/release/
There's no x86-64 in here...
https://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/ubuntu-ports-releases/20.04.2.0/release/
as it would be in here

As grizzled mountain-man installer person, you care not
for the difference between "live server" and "server".
It does not matter to you. With your Bowie Knife and
BIC Lighter, you can survive anywhere, running down
and killing game with the Bowie Knife, and cooking
the food with the BIC Lighter. For example, if I put
this on the optical disc boot line, you would not even flinch.
console=ttyS0,57600n8
Servers don't run DEs typically. Either one of those
discs won't install gnome for you. But you can still
get to the gnome package afterwards perhaps.
The non-live may have an NCURSES interface for selecting
install options, while the live version allows you to
use the mouse. But you can't be watching Youtube vids
while the server installs, as it's not a full DE on the
disc, just enough graphics to get the job done.
You can select a live disc if you want, but don't
expect miracles. Expect an interface that is
highly curated, and does not allow distractions
while you do the install.
That's what I would expect from these things...
Server == "mountain-men only please" (do you have Bowie Knife ?)
apt search Xorg | less # after server comes up, install a DE
sudo apt install Xorg # only if hardware has a graphics driver in X pkg
# getting this far, is a minimal checkpoint
# try a startx and so on, check your tree xinitrc
# before the startx, to make sure it's valid
apt search gnome | less # check for the various metapackages
sudo apt install gnome # relax, will take a while - if this had
# been on the disc, the disc would be larger
