Help!! I'm new to Ubuntu and trying to install version 16.04 on a HP laptop loaded with Windows 10 (originally loaded with Windows 8.1), I tried to install the software several times and each time the partition screen is blank, when I click on some of the buttons on the screen I get the following error:
"ubiquity crashed with TypeError in partman_dialog(): 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable". I donwloaded the software from the website and copied it to a bootable USB stick. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?? Thank you for your help.

This is exactly the same error as reported on bugs.launchpad.net in Oct 2012:
