Public bug reported:

Issue:- Getting blank screen after the initial install grub prompt.

Tried acpi=off, nomodeset parameters added in grub still no luck

Note:- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS worked without any issues.

Env:-

====

UEFI - Dual boot, secure boot disabled, SATA to AHCI

Bios vers - 1.0.7

$find /sys/devices -name "edid"

/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/card0-HDMI-A-1/edid

/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/card0-DP-1/edid

$lspci | grep VGA

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation TU104 [GeForce RTX
2080 SUPER] (rev a1)

02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation TU104 [GeForce RTX
2080 SUPER] (rev a1)

nomodeset:- defined to instructs the kernel to not load video drivers
and use BIOS modes instead until X is loaded.

Surprisingly this desktop comes with single HDMI slot. And there is no
any DP port. We need to rely on this one. Apart from the
nomodeset/acpi=off, is there any grub parameter can I try here? Please
suggest.

Please note:- we need to rely on 18.04 LTS due to application
compatibility.

Please suggest

Thanks
