The installation worked after I swapped of 'everything', (a swap partition as well as zram) with

sudo swapoff -a

I zsynced the Lubuntu bionic-desktop-amd64.iso and received the daily iso file dated 2018-07-14.

I tried again in UEFI mode to install it into my Intel NUC from this current daily iso file.

- This time there is no swap partition, only zram. I did not swapoff, started the installer without modifying anything.

- I tried with the partitioning option Erase Disk (to let the installer use the whole disk).

It works :-) The installation worked and the installed system (in UEFI mode) works.

- I created a swap partition and swapped on in a new live session, so that it was active as well as zram.

I tried again, and it works :-)

So the daily iso file dated 2018-07-14 is not affected by this bug.
