I zsynced the current daily Xubuntu Groovy iso date (dated 2020-10-10), and when cloned to a USB pendrive and booted, a 'writable' partition is created as it should. This system was cloned directly after testing a larger Ubuntu Groovy system, and with earlier iso files, it was likely to fail to

It could be a race, this is the code that creates the partition and filesystem: echo "start=$start" | sfdisk --no-reread -q $DEVICE -a || return for d in ${DEVICE}$newpartno ${DEVICE}p$newpartno ${DEVICE}-part$newpartno; do if [ -e $d ]; then mkfs.ext4 -q -L

This bug is still alive when tested with the current daily Ubuntu Groovy iso file cloned to a USB drive and tested in a Dell Precision M4800. This iso file is improved in many other ways, but this bug remains to be fixed. Maybe there is some kind of race condition, that affects drives, that were
