I want to reinstall Ubuntu (17.04) and have a complex partition layout.

pre-calculated partition layout.
But I do not want to change the layout. I wond install on the exiting

Had to deal with this problem installing Xubuntu 16.04. It happened on a
specific machine, but it was replicated with different USB sticks, with
different ISOs.
Previously, there was a 250 GB failing Xubuntu extended partition with a
root mount point and Swap, and a 10GB NTFS partition with
For my machine, I checked dmesg and saw the raid6_pq module had crashed,
and its modprobe process was hanging unkillable (presumably what locks
up the installer).
I'd guess that ubiquity is loading this module, and it crashes when it
encounters something in the partitions it doesn't like,
I can't reproduce this with 15.04 booting from USB on a laptop with win8 and a
big unpartitioned area;
it did seem to hang for a minute or two, but then went on to the next screen.
So still fixed for me.

I got this problem too, and after deleting my extended partition,
ubiquity works again.

Title:
After 'Preparing to install Ubuntu' screen,
Found a solution. If I mount all of the HDD and the SSD manually via
Unity or Disk application, and select to proceed with all partitions
mounted, then installer proceeds as normal.

Not sure why this works, but I have multiple disk with single partions,
and mounting them manually is the only thing that lets installation
proceed normally.

Title:
After 'Preparing to install Ubuntu' screen, raring installation
I can confirm that mounting all available partitions prior to starting
Ubiquity gets round the problem. I have an SDD with three primary and
one extended partitions.

Got a MacBook Pro 13 Retina (late 2012). None of the suggestions above
works for me.
It's a stock installation of OS X, haven't modified it anyway. There're
three partitions on the SSD:
1. EFI stuff
2. OS X
3. Recovery
