Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.  Reviewing your log files attached to this bug report it
seems that there is a problem with your installation media (CD/DVD) or
with your hardware.  Please retry your installation with new media and
if it still fails I'd recommend testing your CD drive with other media.
In the event that is is not in fact an error with your installation
media or hardware please set the bug's status back to New.  Thanks and
good luck!

Title:
  unable to install boot loader

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  PC is a Dell XPS4600 Pentium 4 with a Seagate 160 GB SATA drive.
  Installation is from 11.04 32 bit live CD.
  Installation fails when configuring boot loader. Message "cannot install boot loader to /dev/sda" and asks me to select another location. I tried other partitions on drive and received same message.  As requested I am attaching syslog and partman files.

  I installed 10.04 successfully then tried 11.04 again. Same error.
