I encountered the same bug when I performed an installation that used LVM (I selected the "Use LVM with the new Ubuntu installation" option). When I opened a shell and examined the partition table, it appears that it had already been created. (The disk was empty when I began.) The partition table resembled the one that resulted after I completed the installation, except that the to-be-ESP partition was set up as a Microsoft Basic Data partition, not as an ESP. (Screen shot attached.)

It should also be noted that the error message refers to installing Debian, not Ubuntu.

Overall, new users could be confused by this message. It deserves more than a documentation fix.
