Ubuntu 20.04 gives problems - 20.10 is fine to install?

[DennisKr]

I did work/develop from my Macbook the last few years but now since I have a big Windows main pc, I also want to start working from there. The big problem is ofcourse that I am used to the Mac development environment so I want to dual boot into Ubuntu as it is almost similar to it.

I tried installing 20.10 and this was fine but run into a apt-key deprecated issue when installing Yarn so I tried 20.04. But 20.04 gives me a lot of errors when trying to install (xid 614 or something error, needed to use nomodeset method) and after install I also see error codes which doesn't really make me feel comfortable using this OS.

Is it ok to freshly install 20.10 already and use it as a main work environment? Or is it still buggy.

And hopefully someone could help me after to install Yarn on 20.10 haha..

20.10 is out of beta and doesn't seem to have any show-stopping bugs on the various Ubuntu forums/support sites.

There's also the Hackintosh thing if you're interested in trying it out.

I'm unfamiliar with this Yarn you speak of, but a search engine led me to here - where there are a couple of other installation options:
