Here is the MD5 sum: 82e6833e66407e50d46d3c4b77212105 kubuntu-17.04
-desktop-amd64.iso

It matches up with the one listed here:
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/zesty/release/MD5SUMS

As such I am re-opening this bug.

Hrm.. I am pretty sure I have seen a few bug reports like this now with
17.04 where it looks like partman is going off the rails:

ubiquity: /lib/partman/choose_partition/60partition_tree/do_option: 205:
/lib/partman/choose_partition/60partition_tree/do_option:

I'm trying to install Kubuntu 18.04 on a Chromebook (that's been running
Ubuntu) and this bug is still present. When I go to click the format
box the installer crashes.

I had an older 18.04 iso on my PC which I was using. I'm going to try
Kubuntu 18.04.1 to see if that works?

them!

sadly it turns out im not allowed to have another OS since its a work pc
so i found a way to get around it since ubuntu doesen't want to fix it

Boot live session > open "kde partition manager"
format the drive/s you wish to use and leave them unformatted
you can now add the partitions in the installer and the drive/s are already formatted

by default it will check the box to format when you add the new
partition which does not cause a problem/crash.
