Bug Description
Ubuntu 16.04 Daily
I have a new 500GB SSD and no other drives attached. I'm installing only Ubuntu on this bare drive, so I'm not sure why this is popping up but it's two issues. My computer is set to UEFI only mode and this only happens when I select "Something Else" in order to setup manual partitioning.
What happens:
1) "Force UEFI installation?" pops up even though this is a bare drive without anything else on it. I did attempt to dd a 250GB SSD to it, but that failed so I wiped the drive.
2) I cannot get past this Force UEFI page. Neither the "Go Back" nor the "Continue" button do anything.
What is expected to happen:
Either don't pop up this message since I've no other OS installed, or clicking the "Go Back" button should go back and the "Continue" button should force the UEFI installation.
On a side note, this screen says "If you continue to install Debian in UEFI mode, " which should probably say Ubuntu instead of Debian.
