Downloading CLI version of Ubuntu

The best CLI/TUI version of Ubuntu server installer is netboot mini.iso.

You can get mini.iso of Ubuntu 20.04 LTS from

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/focal/main/installer-amd64/current/legacy-images/netboot/

and then build any type of system on top of it using Aptitude and other CLI-based lightweight tools without huge massive Snaps and cloud init.
