Public bug reported:

I'm not altogether certain what happened here because I'm almost totally
new to the whole EFI boot process but I was testing Ubuntu GNOME Vivid
20150219 amd64 to see how we now handle upgrades via iso in a dual boot
with Windows and the upgrade/installation froze saying, "Removing
conflicting operating system files....".

I sent myself several pictures via PM because I couldn't "kill" ubiquity
- top doesn't even show it running - so I'll follow up more later. I am
attaching one screenshot of the frozen process.
