Daily build of Ubuntu Budgie 7th January. Computer has an UEFI bios with Ubuntu 16.10 Mint and Windows 10 installed on separate SSDs (GUID partition tables). I installed Mint yesterday to replace Ubuntu 16.04LTS. I was going to try Budgie. It crashed after about a minute of the installation.

Thank you for your email. You are correct this is a duplicate. I can
confirm that running "sudo ubiquity gtk_ui" from a terminal will install it.
