Title:
  Installer crashed after "prepare" screen

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  I am running the Kubuntu Maverik 64bit live cd and when I run the installer I get the following crash report (in the screen right after choosing language - see print screen)
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/kde_ui.py", line 949, in on_next_clicked
      self.dbfilter.ok_handler()
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-prepare.py", line 343, in ok_handler
      i.shutdown()

      message, timeout)
  DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

  One of the logs suggested by the crash handler application -
  /var/log/partman is missing in action, it simply does not exist in the
  live system.

  Output of uname -a , couldn't find lsb_release:
  Linux ubuntu 2.6.35-22-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Sun Sep 19 20:32:27 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  Oh, and the bug is reproducible and consistent - every time I try to
  run the installer I get the same crash report.

  Thanks!
