I-Cat

I already have a "bootable USB drive". That is what I used to try and
install Ubuntu MATE 20.04.3. That will not change the fact that the
partition editor in gparted, Disks, and the installer do not have a UEFI
bootable partition type in their options. The only option is BIOS
bootable (yeah! lets all go back to the way it was done in 1998). I do
not even know the GUID for the UEFI bootable partition type.

For your questions about my system.
Currently Ubuntu MATE 18.04. I tried later versions but each one broke code 
that works in 18.04.
ASUS A88XM-A with 32 GB 1866 MHz DDR2 (4 Crucial DIMMs)
AMD A8-7600 Radeon R7 running at 3.1 GHz
4TB Seagate Iron Wolf SATA HDD (this has Ubuntu MATE 18.04 installed for UEFI 
booting)
(new) 1TB WD Blue SATA SSD (this is where I am attempting to install Ubuntu 
MATE 20.04.3 with UEFI booting)
I copied the contents of the UEFI System Partition from the 4TB HHD to the UEFI 
System Partition on the 1TB SSD.
I use HDMI to connect my computer to my Samsung SyncMate TA350 TV/Monitor.

During installation, I noticed many missing firmware errors. I believe
that they were not included because the iso file is for BIOS booting
only. I need an iso intended for UEFI or BIOS booting. Any drive > 2TB (
4TB drives are now about $75) requires GUID Partition Table and UEFI
booting.

New symptoms. No sound. I go to Control Center -> Sound -> Hardware and
select "Built-in Audio 1 Output / 1 Input Digital Stereo (HDMI) Output.
Test the speakers. Left and right pass. Profile: Digital Stereo (HDMI)
Output. I click close. No sound. I reopen Sound -> Hardware and Ubuntu
has reset it to (IEC958) output. Tried multiple times. Still no sount.
Ran my Blu ray player through the monitor. Sound. 20.04.3 no sound.
Rebooted to 18.04, Sound.

How do I fix a broken installation when the iso and Installer are so
bad?

I would like to help improve the iso and Installer so they are up to
2021, not 1998. Who can I contact?

P.S. What is ripi?
