@psusi, this is a very valid issue and I could reproduce it on an Asus UX32VD with UEFI. On this machine, there is no way in the system setup to select between UEFI or BIOS.

If I boot a 32 bit image from an USB stick, it will boot in BIOS mode. Installation is successful and the EFI partition is not created.
If I boot a 64bit image, it will boot in EFI mode. If a 32bit OS is already installed and I choose a side-by-side installation then there is no warning, EFI partition is not created and the installer crashes with this bug. This is the issue I reported in bug 1302418.

I'm reopening this issue and set it to critical given the number of reports already received.
