This was my fault, I intentionally made the new slideshow in Lunar stop at the end thinking that it would look better for the last screen to be where it stopped. This worked great on my (fast) hardware, but I failed to take into account just how much slower some hardware could be.
The fix is published (I published it before there was a bug report) so the next ISO should hopefully have a normal, looping slideshow again. ** Changed in: calamares (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to calamares in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2012041 Title: lubuntu lunar calamares slide show is very short Status in calamares package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: The new Lubuntu lunar calamares slide show looks good, however - on hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 8gb amd/ati rv610/radeon hd2400 pro/xt) the slideshow is complete at 7% of actual install with message it's near complete - on sony vaio ultrabook svp11216cgb (i5-9400u, 4gb, intel haswell- ULT) the slideshow is complete at 8% of actual install with message its near completed according to progress bar on the screen. The 'almost completed' message is thus premature. The prior slideshow repeated/looped. This is a minor (cosmetic) issue; but % show on progress bar does not match the message on the final slideshow screen.
