Bug Description
Ubuntu MATE currently daily 20.10 20200924 using QEMU.
Expected outcome:
Boot daily iso
Choose Erase disk and install Ubuntu MATE
Complete installation.
Actual outcome:
Boot daily iso
Choose Erase disk and install Ubuntu MATE
Install crashes with ERROR!!! (as superuser) Partition(s) on /dev/vda have been written, but we have been unable to inform the kernel of the change, probably because it/they are in use. As a result, the old partition(s) will remain in use. You should reboot now before making further changes.
