[Bug 1447600] Re: 15.04 installer hangs in partitoner during something else

[girisha]

as a work around, I used gparted, formatted the partition I want to use
for "/". afterwards in the installation program I selected the
"something else option". marked the formatted partition to refer to "/"
but un-ticked the format option. the installation proceeded without a
problem after that :)

Title:
  15.04 installer hangs in partitoner during something else

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  In both Ubuntu and Lubuntu 15.04, when performing a "Something Else"
  install, the installer hangs when trying to format /.

  I was trying a Something Else install on 32 bit.  I asked to format
  sda1 as ext4 and mount at /.  I asked to not format sda3 and mount at
  /home.  I asked to use sda5 as swap.  Installer just stopped with no
  hard drive or CD activity.  No formatting was performed.
