[Bug 903042] [NEW] Ubuntu 11.10 installer crashed. Boot on an LVM partition.

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I was installing Ubuntu 11.10 and the / (including the boot)was an LVM partition.
I chose the LVM partition itself as the place to install boot loader as I don't want to override my existing bootloader.
I got an error that the boot loader cannot be installed at the place I have mentioned.

I was given three options:
1) Change the bootloader location.
2) Don't install it.
3) Exit.

I was able to select any one of the radio buttons but the NEXT button didn't work and I could only see the wait cursor (the rotating circle).
I waited for around 20 minutes and then clicked on the close button.
