[Bug 1555636] [NEW] partman hangs with two disks

[Thomas]

Public bug reported:

Hi,

today I wanted to install xenial server amd64 * on my computer. Its a Lenovo Thinkcenter, with two 500GB SATA Disks, which I want to setup in RAID 1 mode, like I do it every time. Both disks are blank (without a partition table) and the system operates in uefi (to the new partition table is in gpt
format).

So on the Installer, I choose "guided use entire disk" for the first
disk, which works well. When it asks me, to save changes, I say no to
come back to the manual partitioning screen. Then I choose guided
partitioning, and then again "guided use entire disk" for the second
disk.

After this step, the screen keeps purple and it come never back to the
manual partitioning screen like before (on 14.04 it was working like
this).
