Bug Description
I tried to install LTS 20.04 on a machine (e5-2670 powered) which had drives (Crucial 500GB SATA, HGST 2GB rotating) formatted for a pfSense (FreeBSD) test. Install failed to probe for disks multiple times. dd'ing zeros over the front part of thedrives allowed installation to proceed.

I suspect from the phrasing this is actually a bug in subiquity not ubiquity. But without more information it's hard to say.
