To find the nearest (and thus probably the fastest) mirror, see the
32
<a class="ulink" href="http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive" target="_top">list of Ubuntu mirrors</a>.
37
When downloading files from an Ubuntu mirror using FTP, be sure to download the
38
files in <span class="emphasis"><em>binary</em></span> mode, not text or automatic mode.

lists each image and its purpose.
51
The HWE installation images are located on each Ubuntu mirror in the directory <a class="ulink" href="http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/focal-updates/main/installer-i386/current/images/hwe-netboot/" target="_top">ubuntu/dists/focal-updates/main/installer-i386/current/images/hwe-netboot/</a>. The image will be available soon after HWE kernel is available and before second point release.
