Xubuntu daily QA-test install on
hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 5gb, nvidia quadro nvs 290)
-- notes from iso.qa.ubuntu.com report
It picked location as ADELAIDE (not melbourne, my primary pc says Prahran VIC AU), so I hit BACK to return prior page then CONTINUE again but this time
"UBI-PARTMAN CRASHED
ubi-partman failed with exit code 10. Further informaton may be found in /var/log/syslog. Do you want to try running this setup again before continuing? If you do not, your installation may fail entirely or maybe broken."
Hitting TRY-AGAIN just repeated message, after 6+ tries I hit continue.
It returned to selecting ADELAIDE (where it was before I hit BACK). I changed to melbourne (again) & continued
installation proceeded, now ...

(I was unable to file using `ubuntu-bug ubiquity` on the box, it kept saying problem already reported and opening up 1766945 which relates to an EFI issue on BIONIC, which is fix released, this is BIOS & I'm on groovy.
