Public bug reported:
On the Ubuntu 24.04.1LTS installer, on the Manually-Partition page,
there is no way to set up a partition to host the UEFI boot loader, if
it doesn't already exist.
When you add a new partition, the only formats available are EXT4, etc.
But what format should we choose for the UEFI boot partition? There
doesn't seem to be one (or if there is, it's certainly not at all
clear). This should be fixed. It's a show-stopper. It prevents you
getting past the manual-partition page, unless you are lucky enough to
already have such a UEFI partition on your HDD.
(I've also raised a related bug 2080739 about when this UEFI partition
is missing, the NEXT button on the manual-partition page is permanently
disabled.)
