I'm seeing the same bug using the official release iso, after checking the "Disks" program it shows the ZFS partitions are created but either way the installer crashes right after selecting the Time Zone.

Edit: This is on an NVME drive as it seems from another seemingly relevant bug report that also had a similar issue only on NVME.

I also saw the same problem. After time zone selection the installer crashes while using ZFS
