Ok let me just say there's no official ubuntu running on pbp. That means, even following that guide, your kernel and firmware won't upgrade unless you rebuild them and fetch drivers here and there.
For the time being I think you can get a close experience with armbian daily build based on focal fossa. Different UI but at least it's ubuntu based. You can even choose for the debian flavour if you want

the ui can also be swapped out on the armbian image. just install gnome and any ubuntu-specific plugins.
