Yea, that looks like a bug in the menu: it shouldn't take you back to
the main menu where you can choose a guided install *again* after having
done so already.  If you want to set up raid on multiple disks, you need
to do a manual install rather than a guided one.

  partman hangs with two disks on uefi

Bug description:
  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 (so 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).
