[Bug 1635968] Re: Ubiquity crashed during install of Ubuntu 16.10 from live USB

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to
review all reported bugs in a timely manner.

>From UbiquitySyslog.txt which was added to this bug report:

Oct 23 12:33:29 ubuntu kernel: [  260.420637] squashfs: SQUASHFS error:
Can't find a SQUASHFS superblock on sda1

It's possible you had a bad write to your installation media or for some
other reason its contents could not be read correctly.

I'm closing this report as this doesn't appear to be a bug with the
Ubuntu installer.

Title:
  Ubiquity crashed during install of Ubuntu 16.10 from live USB

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I was installing Ubuntu Desktop 16.10 amd64 (I downloaded the ISO from Ubuntu.com). After partitioning my hard drive to install Ubuntu in dual boot with Windows 10, and after selecting time zone I received a message saying Ubiquity crashed, but in reality the installation continued, I could see it from the lower part of the installer where you see the console output.
  The upper part of Ubiquity was blank.
  After rebooting I could normally log on and use Ubuntu and also boot into Windows 10.
  I am attaching a screen-shot of Ubiquity after the crash.
