Public bug reported:

Full disk install on dc7700 (legacy BIOS box)

I've suffered a few install failures of late, but have pretty much
ignored them due to unusual install issues (flaky internet), unusual
options etc.. but this should have easily worked

Error on screen at "Installation Failed" is

Command <i>calamares-logs-helper /tmp/calamares-root-vty5dntn</i> finished with exit code 1.

(On that one I blamed flaky internet I have on occasion; but this install was made with the room router OFF, ie. offline install so internet is off).

When the machine was booted; the router was on. I went to other room to
check what install I was doing; realized it was no-internet so returned
here & turned it off; so there was internet during boot, but internet
was done PRIOR to starting the installer; pop-up of no internet appeared
on screen before I clicked 'INSTALL'.
