I went to Ubuntu's website and looked for the .img file for my Raspberry Pi 400. I can only find the desktop version of 20.10, which is not a LTS and not the one I want. Where can I find the 20.04.1 DESKTOP (not server or core) to flash? I have Balena Etcher for MacOS and I am going to flash my 512GB SanDisk MicroSD Card. I can only find the server and core builds of 20.04.1, but not the desktop.


Also, will this OS work fine on the 400? I tried it on my 3B and the desktop environment takes all the resources on 1GB of RAM. I know the Gnome DE (what Ubuntu uses) takes a lot of resources, hopefully it will work fine as my main PC on my Pi 400. I have high hopes for this OS, as I am ready to move on from Ubuntu MATE and want to use normal Ubuntu.

No official Ubuntu Desktop Image for Raspberry Pi was released for Ubuntu 20.04. However, you can install the desktop on top of the server edition.
Install the server image and enter the command


sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop

and reboot.
(You may first need to run sudo apt update in a fresh installation)




Desktop images for Raspberry Pi are available for later versions of Ubuntu. See this answer.
