Bug Description
Binary package hint: debian-installer
I upgraded my system from 8.04 to 8.10 using a LiveCD (so it wasn't so much an upgrade as a complete wipe out and start over). I tried to use the "guided - resize" (see attached screenshot); however there were disk errors and the resize was not possible. I switched to "guided - use entire disk" and still was not able to proceed with the installation. I quit the installer and retried several times with no luck.
I did finally get the installer to work by starting the install from the initial boot screen instead of from the Live CD.
