Title:
  Ubuntu 18 won't install in dual boot on dual disks

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I tried to install Ubuntu 18 on a PC with 2 drives: a HD with Windows
  7 and a SSD drive on which I wanted to install Ubuntu.

  I had a partition with a lot of space on the SSD drive, shown as SDB
  in the installer. I chose this but ubi-partman crashed. There is a
  message box, but no message is being displayed.
