Title:
  Lubuntu 18.04.4 QA-test install; just stops (circling pointer)

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Lubuntu 18.04.4 (daily) QA-test install on
  dell [optiplex] 755 (c2d-e8300, 8gb, amd/ati radeon rv610/radeon hd2400 pro/xt)

  The box hdd (80gb) had 2x prior installs sharing drive; the purpose of
  install was to replace an existing install with this 18.04.4 image
  (http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/384/builds/206417/testcases/1302/results/)
  with   (as most installs these days are 20.04, old system may have had
  2x20.04 or 1x18.04,1x20.04)

  Using "Something-else"

  At "Installation type" I'd selected sda2, clicked "Change" and entered
  details. I clicked Continue/Okay or whatever box required & was
  returned to "Installation type" screen which hasn't changed for 60+
  minutes; just looping...

  (due to length of wait, some details may be fuzzy).  I switched to
  term, could find no squashfs errs or anything else, just loads of
  "sda:  sda1   sda2" lines (journalctl/dmesg)

  I'm happy to re-test; the box is primarily used for qa-testing, and
  Lubuntu 20.04 has been having trouble installing to this box (erase
  disk & install only) for awhile, but this wasn't an erase & install
  option..
