I can confirm on a Lenovo T440. Attempted to overwrite an old (30GB)
16.04 install on / (sda1 for me) while leaving the separate user
partition (210GB on sda5). The error popped-up as described by previous
commenters. I attempted to rename a new user (different than my
existing account both times) but the error persisted. I opted to
continue to see what would happen. Currently, I am at the "install"
graphic page while my cursor has turned into a perpetual spinning ball
of sadness.
