Bug Description

I tried to install Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, but when I get to the point where the installer warns me about something with mount points, right after selecting wipe disk from the menu of:
Wipe Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Files
Install Alongside Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Wipe Disk and Install

I selected wipe disk, and was met with a warning. I clicked continue, and then the installer crashed, leaving me in a small part of Ubuntu, where I have the desktop, time, and battery status, as well as Firefox, but nothing else. I am sort of new to Ubuntu, so I don't know what to do with my USB stick, or the half running Ubuntu that I am stuck in now.
