Title:
  Ubuntu failed to install on SSD (samsung)

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 15.04 installer was able to partition, format and copy files in
  SSD. But it was unable to create a boot leading to an installer crash.

  The drive was a 256 GB SSD (Samsung 840 Evo), quite new and has been
  checked for no drive errors, not frozen and not locked. On a previous
  attempt it reported installation successful, but was unable to boot.
  So I secure-erased (using hdparm) the drive to try again.
