[Bug 1891835] [NEW] installer crashed while completing disk partitioning

[steve lubbs]

Public bug reported:

I was installing 20.04 on USB over 17.10. Separate partitions for / (100
GB), /boot (35 GB), and swap (16 GB). efi partition 100 GB. First
attempt I checked the box for format for / and /boot. Installer hung and
I rebooted to to main drive and couldn't find efi partition. Tried
install again and it crashed. And here we are. No syslog or partman log
because you don't give instructions to do so until I get here and it's
too late. Sorry.
