Comment 10 for bug 1892617

I wrote another update for this last night, but I must have closed browser before hitting POST sorry.

I needed a Lubuntu 18.04 for support; so used that partition (sda5 on d755-8) to install to, and the Lubuntu 18.04.5 hung too (2+ hours).
Looking, it looked identical (message wise in journalctl & dmesg)

I rebooted, ran `badblocks` across sda1 & sda5 without issues.
erased sda5 & created a new sda5 using `gparted` (no issues)

Tried again to install Lubuntu 18.04.5 (amd64, last daily/RC) iso and it hung for ~two hours.

I don't know how to query iso.qa.ubuntu.com to scan for all my d755-8 install alongside, replace partition, manual partitioning for more detail, but that box is used heaps for QA-testing.
