Title:
  Utopic ubiquity froze while reformatting existing partition

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Attempting to install Ubuntu GNOME Utopic 20140923 i386 and I chose
  Something else. From there I chose my partition sda13 marked format,
  use as /, ext4, no size change. I waited for quite a while and there
  was no progress, again no resizing was being done. The installer only
  needed to format, create ext 4, and set the mount point. It appeared
  that /var/log/installer/debug showed an error just respawning over and
  over again.
