I have a dual boot set up where windows and ubuntu are on separate disks. I installed the boot loader on the disk Ubuntu is installed and then set it as the primary disk. With Ubuntu 20.04 is released, Im think of of installing it fresh. How would I go about doing that ?

When you start up the installer, just make sure you are aware of path/disk name your Ubuntu disk has. There'll should be an option during the installation process that will ask you if you want to install over your previous version (will keep all your data, just install 20.04) or do a clean install (wipes all into oblivion). From there just like how you installed your previous Ubuntu version, find the disk you want to install 20.04 on in the disk selection/partition menu and select it and then continue onward with the installation.

This is what I've done with both clean installs and installs that merely replace the previous OS of 18.04.
