Title:
  Ubuntu 10.10 crashes on install

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  I am attempting to install 10.10 to a frankenclone.  A brand new
  motherboard/cpu/memory/powersupply, with an existing hard drive.  I
  have repartitioned and formatted the hd both with fdisk and parted.

  When I try to run the graphical installer it gets part way into
  "Configuring apt" I would say less than 10% and fails with "Installer
  crashed"  I don't see any sort of error code or other marker.  It does
  specify that I should install syslog and partman, which I will do so.

  I suspected that this may have been a bad install disk, so I reburned
  at 1x speed and retried.  Still fails.
