[Bug 1232669] Re: 13.10 ubuntu gnome install failed

[aloxley]

Hi Brian,
I was able to get this working, by following the instructions on the following bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/658865

Essentially all I needed to do was the following:
sudo rm /usr/lib/ubiquity/apt-setup/generators/40cdrom

And it got past the point of the installation that kept crashing.
I wasn't actually installing via a CD, I was using a usb live-cd created in linux mint using unetbootin.

Feel free to close this if you would like (or do i need to? This is the
first time i've submitted a bug) :)

Cheers,
Alistair.
