[Bug 2024332] Re: Ubuntu ISO booted from Ventoy: Hide the Ventoy device from "Select drive"

[David Hedlund]

** Description changed:

- Facts:
- * When a dedicated Ubuntu ISO is installed on a USB flash sticks (for example ubuntu-23.04-desktop-amd64.iso via usb-creator-gtk), the USB device will not be listed in the "Select drive" during the Ubuntu installation.
- * Ventoy issue: If you add a Ubuntu ISO (or several ISOs) to the multiboot ISO tool Ventoy, the USB device will be available in the "Select drive" during the Ubuntu installation. Ubiquity will list the largest device first.
- 
- Step to reproduce the Ventoy issue:
- * Download a Ubuntu ISO
- * Download, and install Ventoy (https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/releases) on a USB device.
- * Copy the Ubuntu ISO to the VENTOY partition.
- * Shut down the computer.
- * Boot the Ventoy USB device, and select the Ubuntu ISO to start the installation
- 
- See Bug attachments for screenshots.
- 
- The same issue will be reproduced if you run Ventoy from a SATA SSD
- without USB adapter.
- 
- For comparison
- * Windows 11 (Win11_22H2_EnglishInternational_x64v2.iso) will correctly NOT show the USB device on the list of potential installation destination devices, if is installed from a USB device with Ventoy. See screenshot.
