24.04 Kubuntu problems

[Walter Lapchynski]

Good catch. In all these years of using Calamares (Lubuntu has been
releasing it since 18.10), I never noticed that. 

The good news is it's easy to configure a solution for. Changing the
`initialSwapChoice` option in partition.conf from `file` to `none`
should solve the problem. However, there's a larger problem here which
should be fixed in Calamares itself. I've made a bug to track both the
(maybe temporary) configuration issue and the ultimate solution:
