I can reproduce this problem (exactly what is described in comment #10) with the 20210324 daily build of Ubuntu MATE. The problem *does not* exist in the 20210324 daily build of regular Ubuntu.

The only difference I see here is that when you start an install and you're presented with the Install screen, the regular Ubuntu says "Install" and the Ubuntu MATE one says "Install (as superuser)".

So why does the MATE installer use superuser privs and is this absolutely necessary?
