I am trying to install Ubuntu for the 6th time now and cant get it to work. I want to install it on an extern PCIe SSD connected with my Laptop via Thunderbolt. So I started from Windows and used a Ubuntu 18.04 ISO to install it on an USB-Stick with Rufus. Than I boot from USB and start the Live-USB part and go through the installation process. Choosing the SSD as Bootloader. Everytime it got on of the following results.

  1. It didnt work and it shut down everytime I boot from the SSD

  2. The installation worked I could login but everytime I entered the settings or tryed to shut down the system everything froze and I had to kill the Laptop with the power button.

  3. I see the Login screen but everytime after I log in the System shuts down.

I dont really know what is going on and cant find a proper step by step method on installing it on a extern device. Everytime it stops at a certain point and leaving me at a non functional state.... getting really frustrated by now.

Hope you can help me out here.

Greetings
