Apr  6 15:02:32 ubuntu kernel: [   19.769583] SQUASHFS error: zlib decompression failed, data probably corrupt
Apr  6 15:02:32 ubuntu kernel: [   19.769586] SQUASHFS error: squashfs_read_data failed to read block 0x62ec67fe

It's possible you had a bad write to your media. When having such
problems please try the option to check the integrity of the image from
the installer boot menu, and if this confirms that the media is corrupt,
try re-writing and/or re-downloading it.

Title:
  "nothing wrong, usb stick vulnerable"

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  ubuntu 18.04.2.iso (amd64) on Toshiba 32G stick on dell optiplex 3050
  (7th generation intel i5, EFI-boot, Secure boot off) got some
  unrecoverable errors, while installing ubuntu alongside win10 pro. Was
  downloaded on WinXp and put on usb with win32DiskImage.

  I will try this procedure again to see if the same "feature" arise.
  :-)

  This was the best trial so far, after changing one setting in the Dell bios.
  It had two fields recognizing Windows bootloader; and I turned off the first.
  After that, the ubuntu installer recognized windows alongside.
  Before that, I doubted if it even could.

  Please attach the files /var/log/syslog and /var/log/partman to your bug;
  No idea where to find these. Main problem is the usb stick is busy and mounted, and cannot be accessed.
