How to use Calamares to install Ubuntu?

I am using Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS.

I uninstalled Ubiquity and installed Calamares:

sudo apt autoremove --purge ubiquity
sudo apt install calamares

When I attempted to run calamares from the command line, I got the message:

ERROR: Cowardly refusing to continue startup without settings. 
     "/etc/calamares/settings.conf" 
     "/usr/share/calamares/settings.conf" 
ERROR: FATAL: none of the expected configuration file paths exist.

I assume that I need some kind of configuration file. Is this available from somewhere (such as the Ubuntu repositories)? What are the steps to use Calamares as the installer, instead of Ubiquity?
