Issues Installing Kubuntu on New PC

[striderdx12]

Hello,

Making my way to get used to linux on a desktop. I'm having problems booting up kubuntu after installing the latest nvidia graphics drivers. My kubuntuOS is version 24.04 LTS.

I have just built a PC with these specs:
CPU - AMD 9800X3D,
GPU - RTX 5070 Ti,
RAM - 32GB.

ALSO, I received this message when booting up kubuntu for the first time. What is it and should I be worried?:

'RDSEED32 is broken. Disabling the corresponding CPUID bit'


In addition I have also tried multiple times to download KubuntuOS 26.04 LTS onto a flash drive but had no luck with balena Etcher, so I used rufus but got this message before proceeding:

'The image you have selected is an ISOHybrid, but its creators have not made it compatible
with ISO/File copy mode. As a result, DD image writing mode will be enforced'.

Now my USB drive is split into 2 partitions, but I think it is OK to use to boot up the computer if I need to do a complete BIOS reboot/wipe. I don't have anything of value saved into my SSDs so it should be fine. Looking for feedback and workarounds ASAP as I tackle these issues this week.

Thanks in advance!

i would stick to installing 24.04 at the moment while we wait for the kinks to get sorted on the 26.04 .iso (it's brand new).

how did you attempt to install the nvidia driver on 24.04?
