Boot live session > open "kde partition manager" format the drive/s you wish to use and leave them unformatted you can now add the partitions in the installer and the drive/s are already formatted by default it will check the box to format when you add the new partition which does not cause a problem/crash. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1687637 Title: Kubuntu installer crashes when checking format box To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1687637/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
