clicked install 3rd party this time, see if I have issues with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-meta/+bug/1891408 still
didn't find install-alongside, so switched to this QA testcase..
i just deleted the SDA1 partition & then re-created it for install..
error has appeared (looks like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1891275)

Error restoring installed application.
An error occurred while restoring previously-installed applications. The installation will continue, but you may have to manually reinstall some applications after the computer reboot.

I erased & re-created the single partition on this system, so don't expect this error. I don't expect any restoration of packages to occur, but even if it did - my install was from the same image with no packages added (unless downloaded & installed during install itself, which could have been done again).
The installer then exited??? no reboot message at all??? !!!
I manually rebooted the 'live' image since I was thrown back at desktop (I clicked INSTALL and not TRY at the beginning, i didn't expect to end up in the TRY mode at all)
this is weird... Login to what I expect to be a CLEAN/FRESH Install, and firefox opened at my artifacts bug report for the prior install???? command history is present (df, lsb_release & other commands used to test post-install). there is a single install which should have been formatted, so something is wrong (or I did something wrong..)
Was there an acceptance box I misread & thus missed, that caused the intended format (erase partition, create partition) to be NOT done, and thus only system directories were erased; explaining the attempt to restore packages??? this test is of no value until re-done..
