Hello how can I install ubuntu desktop 21.04 on raspberry pi 4 using serial console?

How do I prepare the SD card files to make this happen?

Thanks.

Edit: I was able to fix my problem installing ubuntu 21.04 on the raspberry pi using UART TTL:

Here is a YouTube video on how to do it:

Then I needed to allow UART TTL communication, here is the tutorial on doing that:

Here is the pic proof I logged into the Ubuntu 21.04 installer as root via UART Serial TTL:

Now I can install ubuntu 21.04... since I have access to the ubuntu installer.
