[Bug 2024970] [NEW] Installer crashed when almost complete

[Jack Ostroff]

Public bug reported:

Installer (kubuntu-22.04-desktop-amd64.iso, downloaded July 2022)
crashed when almost done.  Progress bar said something like checking
filesystems 90%.  It had already removed all unneeded packages (did
minimal install [not from minimal iso]).  Problem in that I couldn't get
a console from the main installer screen (or just didn't know how) so
tried to send but from Ctl-Alt-F2 console, but that obviously failed to
launch a brower.  Eventually the installer finished/crashed (?) and put
me in live mode, so I redid the report.  Hopefully it's not a duplicate.
Until I reboot, I won't know if the install got far enough to use the
system or if I need to start from scratch.  I also can't tell if ubuntu-
bug actually uploaded anything or not, and this reporting only allows a
single attachment, so hopefully I can upload /var/log/partman later.
However, I had pre-partitioned and root was /var/log/vgo1-lv_root and
/boot was /dev/sdc1.  At this point, /target has been unmounted (by the
installer, not by me)

This is an old box pre UEFI.
