Title:
  Lubuntu failed install "sfdisk --force --append /dev/sda"

Status in Calamares:
  Fix Released
Status in calamares package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Lubuntu 20.04 install on
  dell [optiplex] 755 (c2d-e6850, 5gb, amd/ati radeon rv516/x1300/x1550)
  (not the d755 that gets/got issue 1851188), but still maybe related

  I was attempting to replace sda8 (/ with format; was btrfs), and re-
  use sda9 (ext4 no format)

  My drive mapping is SDA1 (ntfs; xp game), SDA2 extended partition
     with SDA2 extended divided into
     - sda5 swap
     - sda6 lubuntu 18.04 system
     - sda7 lubuntu 18.04 data (/home)
     - sda8 (was btrfs, opensuse system)
     - sda9 (ext4, was opensuse data)

  My install attempted to re-format SDA8 for /, re-use sda9 as /home

  (( NOTE:  SDA8 & SDA9 may have changed, I think due to the numerous
  install attempts, and re-format of the old sus_sys partition, the
  numbers have changed..  Either way I re-use the /home each time
  without format ))

  I was suspicious this related to
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/calamares/+bug/1851188 but
  no longer think so.
