I just installed Ubuntu 20.04 LTS whats the default password?

69,113

Solution 1

Username and password are both "ubuntu" according to this: https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/how-to-install-ubuntu-on-your-raspberry-pi#4-boot-ubuntu-server

Solution 2

Also, it on a PI 4 using Ubuntu Server 20.04, even though it presents the login prompt you have to wait about 2 mins for the SSH authorisation to be completed.

And when you login it does a load of unattended updates as of writing it installed 26 packages and you cannot install anything else while it does these update

    This is a Raspberry pi 3 b+ running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS 32bit (I downloaded from here) and the screen says:

    Ubuntu 20.04 ubuntu tty1
    
    ubuntu login:
    

    And I cant fine the username password. Also I am new to my Raspberry pi and linex.

    This was the key, I even reinstalled it thinking something went wrong. Waited a few minutes with a PI 2 and all the sudden started accepting the default user and pw. Thank you
