[Bug 1044904] Re: Installer crashed on fresh install of 12.04

[melchiaros]

As can be seen it ends with a segfault in apt.

The starting of the segfaults is on handling dev/sda1 which is
indentified(label) as msdos.

Seems to indicate that this here is a dual boot attemped.

** Summary changed:

- Installer crashed on fresh install of 12.04
+ Installer crashed on fresh install of 12.04 - kernel: [ 690.274407] plugininstall.p[9015]: segfault at 3c307ab0 ip 00007fa3130515b9 sp 00007fffd234cfd0 error 4 in libapt-pkg.so.4.12.0[7fa312ffd000+120000]

Bug description:
  Tried to do a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04 on  a new Toshiba P850. I
  received an error about not being able to install the bootloader in
  the preferred place. I selected the top alternate location, which the
  installer accepted. A minute or two later it stated the installer had
  crashed and did not give any other error messages.  I was installing
  from a DVD with the .iso burned to it.
