Bug Description
By the end of the installation of Ubuntu 17.10, the installer crashed. The same happened right before when trying to install ubuntu 18.04. Perhaps it's a problem in my new SSD.

Your disk is currently partitioned to boot in bios mode, but you booted the installer in EFI mode. A warning message prompted you that this could be a problem and recommended performing a bios mode install instead, but you chose not to. You either need to perform the bios mode install, or partition the disk using GPT and set up an EFI system partition to install in EFI mode. This will be done for you if you choose the "use entire disk" guided install option.
