I booted the Lubuntu 18.04.4 ISO on live, and couldn't see any issues.
I used `gparted` to firstly delete the sda9 partition, clicked apply. Next I 
created a new ext4 partition using the space without issue & rebooted

Re-ran Lubuntu 20.04 using new daily and Manual partitioning again
  - sda9 set for system (no format; but empty)
  - sda8 set for /home (no format, old non-Ubuntu data)
and install this time worked.

I am tempted to change this bug report back to 'New' but I'll wait, and
in a few days (if I remember) will repeat this install and decide then.
