Title:
  Re-Installation of 12.10 from live usb crashes

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10 previously failed due to the installer
  crashing, attempts to complete installation post-crash failed, as
  Ubuntu didn't recognise the network or audio devices.

  Tried to re-install from a Live USB, which crashed on trying to
  install ubiquity. I've attached syslog.
