I tried installing it on very new hardware (testing) and i can't remember exactly what the issue was but i couldn't get it installed. I ran debian for years, way before ubuntu was around. Then ran freebsd for a while and then macos for 6-7 years.
I then finally tried ubuntu around 2013 and i was pretty happy with it. Kept my install around until 2025 when i wanted to try debian on a new rig but, yeah couldn't get it to boot properly. Didn't try very hard either, just wanted something that works.
