[Paul White]

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.

Ubiquity is now unmaintained as it has been replaced by either the
Ubuntu Desktop Installer or Calamares starting with Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.
Therefore, this bug is being closed as 'Invalid'.

If you believe this was done in error, please feel free to re-open the
bug report.

Title:
  Install crashes on vmware install to 8tb VMDK disk

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Background:
  -) Windows 10 Host (10.0.19044.1348)
  -) CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-core processor
  -) VMware Workstation 16 Player (version 16.2.1-18811642)

  Steps to replicate:

  1) Merge two 5tb disks into one volume using Windows "manage Storage Spaces". Select zero replication, (JBOD)
  2)  Create a new Ubuntu VM and put the virtual hard drive on the volume. (The gui forces you to select the option to split the Virtual drive into many files)
  3) Try to install ubuntu to the newly created virtual machine
