Bug Description
THIS INSTALL MOSTLY WORKED, so very minor. Problem encountered was
- unclear error message from calamares (just error & close); the major issue I suspect; yet install worked booted & two OSes could be selected; mostly worked
I'll do some more installs of this type (unclean install) so this report could be marked as incomplete (waiting for me to get to that & see how severe etc)
-------
qa-test install to
- hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 8gb amd/ati rv610/radeon hd2400 pro/xt)
testcase: install using existing partition (sda6 or whatever I last used yesterday)
(two installs on box; lunar ubuntu-mate & mantic ubuntu-desktop; I'm selecting the ubuntu-desktop partition which has additional packages & music installed)
possibly of interest; ubuntu-desktop installed to two partitions being / & ESP; I only selected the / partition of lubuntu mantic & this install

I didn't expect this, and have no clues currently as to problem. If anyone reading this knows, please let me know (here, iRC etc)..
I'll continue to explore, then when I know the state of the partition will decide if I just start again (it'll be lubuntu mantic only) & see if i can re-create OR explore further. (retrying a non-lubuntu install then install over it with lubuntu isn't a high priority for me; its just what was on this box)
as the install is a GTK based one (initially ubuntu-mate (x2) then ubuntu-desktop) I'm not worried about package issues, primarily that the installer works & gets a bootable system on it in a state where i know what's there.. and can direct/advise others..
I plan on continuing exploration later today.
