Bug Description
Installing ISO daily 20210119 Kubuntu Hirsute on Lenovo V14 IIL running in UEFI + secure boot mode.
Ubiquity crashed when selecting WiFi network during the install. The error message Installer crashed appeared when I attempted to select the WiFi network.
Booted up the image and clicked on the "Install Kubuntu" button.
The installer started as normal - I then selected the correct keyboard layout and progressed onto the Wireless screen- selected connect to this network - and selected my wireless and the installer crashed with the failure message.
I will upload screenshot via another computer after filing this bug.
WORKAROUND:
- At boot select the option to 'Try' Kubuntu and progress to the full live desktop session.
- Use the network management system tray applet to connect to wifi.
- Start the installer via the desktop icon or main menu entry.
