Public bug reported: A few days back I installed Ubuntu on msata ssd successfully with same usb stick (using "accidentially" legacy bios mode). Today I replaced internal 2.5 inch hdd with 2.5 inch ssd to install Ubuntu in UEFI mode. But installation fails with the following error in /target/log/log/apt/history.log
