If this is still an issue (which it sounds like it may not be), then
we'd need the partman log from the installer (/var/log/partman
immediately after it crashes) to debug this.  It'd probably be
significantly easier to extract that from a non-Wubi install attempt.

** Project changed: ubiquity => parted (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Using Wubi I get No root system defined, cannot install ubuntu

Status in Wubi, Windows Ubuntu Installer:
  New
Status in “parted” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am running the latest version of WindowsXP. I have a 90GB C drive,
  298GB D Drive. Windows is installed on my C drive. I went to  the
  Ubuntu web site and download the ubuntu installer for windows.
  Everything downloads fine. I select D as the installation drive, I
  give 30gb of space, I enter passwords and select install. It says
  everything is installed do you want to reboot. I say yes. Once it
  reboots it tries to verify the install and then I get "No Root System
  Defined". I cannot get by this point. I have tried it several times. I
  have checked the web for a solution to this problem, have not found an
  answer. Seems as though a number of people are having the same
  problem. I f you need or want more information feel free to contact me
  at theBarbers at hotmail.com. Thank you
