Title:
  [natty] kde_components/PartitionModel.py crashes if installer run in
  plasma netbook workspace

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  Trying to install Kubuntu 11.04 on an MSI Wind U100 rebrand netbook.

  After booting the live media I was automatically presented with the
  netbook workspace formfactor, but instead of changing it to the normal
  desktop workspace I thought I'd give it a try.

  The installer crashed after I finished manually partitioning with the
  attached python backtraces. I retried it twice and it was quite
  reproducible. After switching to the desktop workspace (and running
  ubiquity from a terminal with debugging enabled), I got past that step
  and the installation finished successfully.
