[Bug 1311551] Re: Installer crashes at partioning stage (Lubuntu 14.04)

[Brian Murray]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.  Reviewing your log files attached to this bug report it
seems that there is a problem with your installation media (CD/DVD).
You can verify the integrity of the Ubuntu ISO files you downloaded by
following the instructions at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM.  You might also retry
your installation with new media and if that still fails I'd recommend
testing your CD drive with other media.  In the event that is is not in
fact an error with your installation media or hardware please set the
bug's status back to New.  Thanks and good luck!

Title:
  Installer crashes at partioning stage (Lubuntu 14.04)

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When installing Lubuntu 14.04 I chosein the partitioning screen the options
  * Clear hard drive and install Lubuntu
  * Uncrypt hard drive (and thus also LVM was auto-selected)

  I the next screen I set the encryption password.

  After that there came a error message that a unencrypted swap is used,
  and that I should manually run 'swapoff'. (Normal users probably don't
  know how to do it, why can't the installer simply just run swapoff
  directly?)

  After clicking OK there was a crash report and following the Apport
  dialogs this bug report was automatically opened.

  PS. The "bug reporting guidelines" below say that I should attach two
  log files, syslog and /var/log/installer/partman. However the path to
  partman is /var/log/partman. Also there is zero attachment fields
  available until I understood to click the "Extra into" button below.
  And after that there was only one attachmend field, so I have now
  attached the partman log.
