Bug Description

Fresh install of Ubuntu 20.10 20201021 inside qemu/kvm.
Crashes in step 19 "Wait for the installer to finish" of http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/418/builds/222045/testcases/1716/results

Seems to happen only the first time after a new virtual disk was created. If I reboot into the installer again after it crashed, it installs successfully the 2nd time.

It could be related to the KVM host running out of disk space... but I'm not entirely sure as I cannot reliably reproduce it.

Retried with plenty of disk space on the KVM host. Still failed.
