Title:
  Installer crashed near end

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Some of the option I used:
  - Try Mythbuntu without installing, then launched the desktop shortcut.
  - Chose Primary backend/frontend.
  - Did not enable/disable any services.
  - Used the "something else" option to install to a partition I had already set up.

  I had answered all questions, e.g. user name, time zone, and it looked
  like the install was going OK. Then I got the "Installer crashed" pop-
  up, and here I am.
