Were you using ubiquity to delete the partitions or another tool?
Thanks in advance.

Title:
  Installer crashed while deleting disc partition

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I was deleting disc partitions to make space for the Ubuntu
  installation. I had already removed one partition, and on deleting a
  second, the installer crashed, giving me the following traceback in a
  pop-up window:-

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/kde_components/PartitionModel.py", line 111, in parent
      parentItem = childItem.parent()
  AttributeError: 'Partition' object has no attribute 'parent'

  I then noticed that five identical pop-up windows had appeared, all on
  top of each other, and containing the same traceback information.

  In case it is relevant: The disc had 9 partitions, some primary and
  some logical, and they weren't arranged in numerical order.
