Comment 2 for bug 2063962

This seems to be unique to the Q1900M board. I cobbled together another system with an ASRock 970 Extreme 3 motherboard, Athlon II CPU and 8GB RAM and the MATE UEFI install succeeded. Conversely a UEFI install of Lubuntu, which uses the Calamares installer also failed on the Q1900M system. So I don't know what the problem is but I know some things it is not. It is not the hard disk because the install failed with a different one. It is not memory size because it failed when I borrowed a memory stick from another machine to get 8GB on the Q1900M.

After making two backups of my home directory and the disk image of my target machine (An ASRock J5040-ITX board) I worked up the courage to try 24.04 MATE there and it succeeded. It appears this is a peculiar problem with my Q1900M test box (which had no problems with previous Ubuntu releases). If no one else is experiencing a similar problem I suggest we chalk this one up to no-see-ums and forget it.
