[Bug 1530391] Re: Tried to install into a GUID partition table, but failed

[Areeb Yasir]

I'm having the exact same issue with customizing Ubuntu's Live CD.
sudodus could you let us know what the "cruft" was that you removed to
get past this install error?

Many thanks

Title:
  Tried to install into a GUID partition table, but failed

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  *****

  After some more testing, I found that there was some cruft in my
  persistent live system. I wiped the casper-rw partitions's upper
  directory except the home subdirectory, and things started to work
  again in Lubuntu daily :-)

  The cruft must be leftover from previous daily editions of Xenial.
  Sorry for spamming Launchpad with this bug report.

  *****

  During iso testing I tried to install Lubuntu i386 from the desktop
  iso file into a GUID partition table, but ubiquity failed and prompted
  me automatically into this bug report.

  -----
  I should add that before the crash, there was a warning pop up window:

  ubi-prepare crashed
  ubi-prepare failed with exit code 10. Further information ... If you do not, your installation may fail entirely or may be broken.
