[Bug 1810456] [NEW] Installation apt configuration problem

[Ian Grace]

Public bug reported:

I've been trying to install Ubuntu 18.04.1 64-bit on an apparently
healthy Seagate (Model ST3320310CS) SATA HDD. Each time a dialog box
tells me there is an apt configuration problem "An attempt to configure
apt to install additional package from the CD failed". I am then told
that the installation has failed. In the case of Ubuntu I've been using
a USB key.

I've already tried installing Ubuntu Mate 18.04.1 on the same HDD on 2
different 64-bit computers (with both a USB key and DVD) and the message
I received was very similar to the above.

Thanks in advance for any replies.
