@juliank, the install was done on a nearby test box (near my primary system) simulating a usual install which really will be a MBR/legacy partition table

the GPT was automatically created when I selected new (I'd have chosen MBR if given a choice); the systems where this matters are all MBR and have all four primary partitions already utilized

No warning messages were shown I'm sure !. http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/419/builds/229694/testcases/1302/results is the QA-test report.

If a message had shown, I'd likely have realized it was GPT & gone back and created MBR (or pre-prepared as I'd done in most prior QA-test installs in hirsute/this cycle using gparted) as that is my actual intended install case (ie. upgrade an existing/prior Ubuntu install from long ago).

The simple 'install' strategy was used ONLY to make it easier to re-produce the problem.

Reports made duplicate of this include my actual install boxes with systems I do care about (d755-5, d780 etc). All are multi-boot with all primary partitions already utilized.
