Bug Description
=== Release notes text ===
When deleting and recreating partitions in manual partitioning where the disk has many partitions the installer may hang when attempting to mark the partition to be formatted. Resetting and restarting the install will allow the installation to be completed.
===
Attemptin a side by side install after using auto-resize (i.e. manual) Selecting "Something Else" then deleting the partion I wanted to re-use and returning it to free space. Then selected it and selected it to be used as "/" (other defaults left as is e.g. ext4...) When I then selected the swap partition to be used as swap. the installer crashed with the above attached details. This happened twice on the row; hence my raising it as a bug.
