Title:
  x86 install on x86_64 machine 18.04.1  (no format, over x86_64 ) - no
  error except something-went-wrong

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  install of lubuntu 18.04.1 (x86) over lubuntu 18.10 (x86_64)
  something else install
  /dev/sda6 /  (no format)
  /dev/sda7 /home  (no format)

  the /home was fedora, but / was formatted clean for 18.04 install for
  test (but I installed wrong arch), it was then upgraded to 18.10.  It
  was not formatted for this x86 install.  /home was not formatted, so
  fedora became ubuntu 18.04 then 18.10 ..

  last line of dmesg shows
  [ 1203.811831] perf: interrupt took too long (3943 > 3920), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 50500

  but other lines contain errors, so attached
  (journalctl to be attached next)
