A quick glance and I note

I don't believe space should be an issue, but the box could have been
left in an unclean state after last install.. so I'll perform some
checks.

Title:
  xubuntu focal3 install on sl510 (reuse / & /home) & isn't progressing

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Xubuntu focal install using daily on
  - sl510

  was a 18.04 install
  - sda1 = / (no format, ext4)
  - sda5 = /home (no format, ext4)

  because no re-size is used, nor a format, I'd have expected install to
  progress rather quickly but it's stayed at the "who are you" (where I
  enter user details) and hasn't moved.

  A "Problem detected" box appeared...
