[Request] How To Install Ubuntu Server 20.04 Manually
by finalturismo from LinuxQuestions.org on (#59BK1)
So guys iam trying to figure out how to Manually install Ubuntu correctly the way. So as of now what iam doing is iam booting into the USB, than i press ctrl + alt + f2 to change my tty terminal.
from here i manually setup my btrfs partitions, mount them and do a Code:cp * -a -r -f of the entire Ubuntu server usb to the drives i finished setting up with Btrfs.
Now i know this is using the core USB files as the root filesystem base, but what exactly is the install on the USB doing to install the OS?
I need to know the file it is extracting or how the Ubuntu USB is creating the root directory with all the files.
The way iam doing works, but i want to make sure i am actually installing the original server edition of Ubuntu and not some hybrid USB install because i used the USB root files for the root filesystem on the drives.
