[Michael Hudson-Doyle]

Here's a few lines from the journal (from early startup, well before
subiquity is doing anything):

Title:
  Installation fails for pending plucky arm64+largemem iso

Status in subiquity:
  New
Status in subiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Obtain the latest PENDING image for plucky-live-server-arm64+largemem from https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily-live/pending/plucky-live-server-arm64+largemem.iso
  2. Try to install on an arm64 machine.
  3. Installer fails with default settings, seemingly at the "removing previous storage devices" step.

  I will attach the contents of /var/log/installer on the target system
  below. Given I can reliably reproduce the error I would be happy to
  get any more required information as needed.
