[Bug 2105394] [NEW] Kubuntu 225.04 beta will not install

[bmarsh]

Public bug reported:

Tried install on a desktop with AMD Ryzen 5.  Doing a full, totally new
install partitioned manually.  Everything during the start was totally
normal. (previous system was 24.10 so I am familiar with doing this type
of install)

Twice, during two install attempts, at the 84% point, I was presented
with a full screen apparently for a login of "live user".  The first
time I entered my password but nothing happened when hitting ENTER.  The
second time I let the system run for another 20 minutes (with the full
screen present) hoping the install was finishing.  When the system
restarted, it booted 24.10.  I ran update-grub which found Plucky and
when I tried to boot that, it ran into trouble and ended up in
"maintenance mode".

All partitions other than /home were new and freshly formatted.  Gave up
on the install.
