FWIW, I had to gunzip the UBP download, then use Disk Writer (on PC LinuxMint) to put it on the SD card.   DD, or something Windows based like Rufus(?) would do that, too.  Then it started right up a few seconds after I plugged in the phone's power: 1st a screenful or 2 of console text log messages, then the Ubuntu purple graphical splash screen.  Tip: keep it plugged in to maintain charging, since once the power cable is disconnected, it will not resume charging until the phone is restarted (with the power cable plugged in!).
