Public bug reported:

On a laptop that previously had Ubuntu 14.04 installed, ubiquity in
16.04 mounts the existing swap file and then throws an error message
when it can't manipulate it:

The creation of swap space in partition #5 blah blah blah failed

If I exit the installer and manually do a swapoff -a, it then works.

I tried images from 20160321 and 20160307 and both fail.
