Attempted to install again & got error flag right away,
"ubi-partman failed with exit code 10. Further information may be found in /var/log/syslog. Do you want to try running this step again before continuing? / . . ."

- Yes

Same message again.

- Continue anyway

"ubi-timezone failed with exit code 1. / . . ."

- Quit
