Lubuntu 18.04 installation fails (dualboot attempt windows 10/Lubuntu 18.04)
I am trying to install Lubuntu 18.04 (64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop image) as dual boot with Windows 10 on a computer.
I burned the iso on a dvd and proceeded to the installation (from the "try lubuntu" and clicked on the desktop icon), I chose "install Lubuntu next to Windows 10" and continued the installation, when I arrived to the final step before the installation, where you can resize the partitions, I pressed next but the installation didn't start and the window just disappeared.
I tried again but nothing. When I restarted I was promoted with a popup asking if I wanted to report a bug in ubiquity, I ignored it and restarted, trying the "install lubuntu" option from the bios.
This time I noticed that the option "install Lubuntu next to Windows 10"had disappeared, so I could either erase everything and install lubuntu or manually partition (which I am not familiar with).
To avoid issues I aborted this attempt and restarted. From the "try ubuntu" I tried for the last time from the "try ubuntu" option (and then icon from desktop), but this time here too I saw that the option to install Lubuntu next to windows 10 had disappeared...
i am sorry if I wrote a lot, I hope you can understand the issue, basically if I try to install Lubuntu as dualboot the installation setup fails, and after restarting the option to keep windows 10 disappeared.
What can I do?
Edit: seems that Bug #1754174 is somehow similar/related but not exactly the same and it says that a fix was released but my issue persists.
