[Bug 1383679] [NEW] Installer crashed while installing to 8GB USB

[Andreas]

Public bug reported:

I have already had another system installed on a USB key drive, and now
I tried to install Lubuntu to a brand new keydrive. Could not download
updates, altough I was connected (it even said so). It would not allow
me to continue with any option in the Partition-part, so I formatted the
drive with Gparted and after going back and forth, I was able to select
the "install" option.
