Public bug reported:

I'm installing 15.04 on a 2013 Macbook Pro, 13" retina.

It looks like each 'screen' in the process is displayed in a pane or
window, that you can drag around to relocate. One of the "panes" is
titled "Install )as superuser) Preparing to Install Ubuntu' and the
checkmarks for free space, plugged into power source, and connection to
the internet are checked.   Upong clicking 'continue' in this pane,  I
initially thought the installer hung.  I waited for nearly 30 minutes,
and it never progressed to the next screen. I tried movint that pane
around with the mouse, as it seemed.. odd, like it was off center, and
something was 'off the screen' below the visible area. However, the
mouse was unable to move the 'pane'

Upon a second install attempt,  before it got to this point again, I
moved the pane to the top left corner, as far as I could.  when I got to
the same point mentioned above, I clicked continue. After a few moments,
a UEFI warning popped up, telling me that some OS is set to bios
compatibility mode.  I suspect that it was actually this prompt that was
below the visible screen real estate, and caused the assumed 'hang'.

After having relocated the menu, and accepting the UEFI warning, the
installation proceeded.  However, it also popped that same UEFI warning
up approximately 4 additional times during the install process.  This
seems a bit excessive, as once should be enough. I'm not sure if the
repeated prompting is intended, or a bug.  But if it's intended, I would
vote that it's a bit.. excessive.

I'll reinstall this evening after I get home, and attach some
screenshots to this report, as I think that would do better than trying
to explain what I mean by a 'pane"
