I install several Linux distros from USB every week. First check the MD5SUM for your download matches with the code on the Ubuntu website. Use balenaEtcher to create your bootable USB. https://www.balena.io/etcher/
hi i have create the usbstick , and in safe mode works , I guess the nvida drivers does cause the freeze
I wonder if UEFI in the bios is giving you problems with your hardware/driver. I disabled UEFI and only boot from legacy systems and newest version of manjaro installed fine for me.
