Title:
  Installation of ubuntu 11.04 crashes after copying files

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I tried to install ubuntu on my computer at the first partition sda1
  which is formatted with filesystem ext3. The partition has 20 GB. I
  can see a lot of files in that partition. It seems to be the complete
  Ubuntu.

  But the Installer crashed before finishing. Therefore no bootloader
  was installed. Tried to launch Ubuntu with already installed
  Bootloader of OpenSuse. But there is no initrd.gz in /boot of the
  ubuntu partition ...

  The file /var/log/syslog (copied before reboot) is attached.
