[Bug 874642] [NEW] Manual disk-partitioner crashes during Kubuntu 11.10 installation

[markusl]

Public bug reported:

I'm running in VMWare with four virtual disks.  I had configured two
partition tables and full-sized partitions without problems.  I set up a
swap partition, but as soon as the partman returned to the list of
disks, it crashed.

The problem is repeatable two times out of two, and in the same place.
This unfortunately means that Kubuntu is not installable on my PC.  I'll
download another flavour of Ubuntu and see whether it has the same
problem.
