Attempting to start Ubuntu Mate on an RPi 3 B+ for RPi, but it’s not powering up. The SD card was created with Ectcher and rufus, yet everything shows a rainbow screen. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Ubuntu currently lacks native support for version 3b. A common solution involves transferring the Raspbian bootloader files to Ubuntu.
