Title:
  Ubuntu 11.04 install fails

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  Installation failure when I'm using USB or cdrom (in the case of the
  attached log files, it was a CD attempt). I have verified that the
  ISO, and the CD, are not corrupt: the ISO passes the md5 checksum, and
  the CD passes its internal self-check.

  During installation, there are packages that (apparently) need to be
  removed toward the end of installation -- this is where the installer
  is crashing.
