Title:
  calamares has hung, 20.04 qa-test install

Status in calamares package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Lubuntu 20.04 LTS daily (2020-04-05) ISO

  install on

  hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 5gb, nvidia quadro nvs 290)
  testcase: Custom partitioning on xfs

  froze during Manual Partitioning.

  -- layout
  Partition layout was (comment #5)

  /sda1 FAT32
  /sda2 extended
    /sda5 ext4

  -- what I believe I did

  DELETE partition SDA2 first (ie. extended partition)

  
  -- what I hoped would happen

  Hoped (I guess) it would delete all partitions within extended; alas
  it freezes calamares.   (note: I'm adding this after the event, in
  exploration this is how I can re-create freeze)

  To not have it freeze, delete sda5 first, then sda2 can be deleted
  cleanly (expected behavior anyway)

  -- Original text for bug report

  
  I hadn't started creating a partition, was in the process of deleting prior install partitions when it just hung/stopped still.  It was left a few minutes, before I opened a terminal (refer screengrab and you can see the terminal being dragged to the lower screen so I could explore).

  Nothing found in /var/crash/
  I didn't see anything useful in `dmesg` nor `journalctl`

  ~/.cache/calamares/sesion.log attached
  screengrab showing frozen calamares (top screen) and me dragging terminal down to lower screen is also somewhat evident..
