LVGTM--some comments in the FDE section (can take em or leave em), some nits, but I stepped through these last night and they are clear and easy to follow.

One tiny typo, otherwise looking good.
Additional note: as per support comms, could be advisable to include a note about disabling SecureBoot in BIOS (and ensuring BIOS is up to date on the servers). We can take inspiration from the Workstation docs:
Agreed on the SecureBoot thing - tho it could probably live with wherever in the docs we talk about BIOS configuration. I know you added something for that recently? Maybe let's just link that up here. |

The preceding paragraph states that "Good signature" is expected twice in the output, but this is no longer the case; it only occurs once.

It may be worth explicitly emphasizing that one must specify the device, not a partition like /dev/sdb1
. Yes, I'm saying this because I was just bitten by it. :)
I stepped through the OS portion of the installation (on a NUC10) and the updated instructions worked well, i.e., the dialogs presented during installation matched the updated documentation in this PR, and resulted in a bootable Ubuntu 20.04 system with connectivity behind firewall. :) |

Changes LGTM. There were a couple of small changes requested by @eloquence (The note about "Good Signature" being once, not twice, and the note about /dev/sdb
vs /dev/sdb1
for installation media.)
@zenmonkeykstop looks like there are conflicts here, otherwise I'll approve and merge. |
Removed Xenial NUC8 network workaround
