Public bug reported:

I'm new around here, so apologies if I don't give enough information!

I was trying to install Ubuntu on to a second hard drive. I have Windows
7 x64 on my primary hard drive. I tried to install the boot loader to
dev/sda1 (Windows Boot Partition) and I got an error message saying
(something along the lines of) that there was an error installing the
boot loader.

The next window asked if I would like to install it elsewhere, to which
I selected dev/sda.

Then I got an error message telling me that the installer had crashed
and I should file a new bug report!

I've attached syslog and partman as requested from the installer crashed
message.

Running Ubunutu 11.04.

Many thanks!
