Bug Description

Attempting Kubuntu Eoan install using ISO from 2019-10-16. Choose the install option (vs Live booting). Attempting to connect to wifi, the following warning/error appears after typing in the network password:

"org.freedesktop.NetworkManger.PermissionDenied: Not authorized to control networking"

Verified on Dell XPS m1530 (legacy BIOS) and Dell Inspiron 7559 UEFI BIOS.

Wireless networking works fine after OS install and reboot.

I booted without 'quiet splash" and noted a delay for 1 min 30 seconds. Could this bug be related to the delay bug reported at
