I had not checked the format box for the Root partition. It would be much better if the Kubuntu installer could catch this error and print the casper.txt output. It would be good if the error message would specify which disk partition caused the error. Even better, it would offer to format the partition and continue without having to redo the installation. Also does the EFI partition need to be reformatted. My system is dual boot with Windows. It would be could if it could make additions to the ubuntu/kubuntu folders only and allow the existing Windows to remain untouched.
