Bug Description

"Install now" option on install decides where to install, without information.

Choosing "something else" enabled me to select the right drive, format a partition, or at least choose that as an option. And click "install now". But this then takes me back to the previous screen.

I then selected install now, on the basis that it may install in the correct place, and I can try again if not. At this point it crashed.

I have also had a problem previously, with different behaviour. Clicking install now takes me to a screen where I can select an install drive, but with only one drive showing. Which is not the correct one.

Another attempt saw me on the install now/deleted existing/something else option page. These are selectible, but the continue button is greyed out, so I had to go back to the previous screen.
