We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all
reported bugs in a timely manner.

The following messages can be found in UbiquitySyslog.txt which was
automatically attached to this bug report:

Nov  4 09:27:37 ubuntu kernel: [ 1278.889115] SQUASHFS error: zlib decompression failed, data probably corrupt
Nov  4 09:27:37 ubuntu kernel: [ 1278.889126] SQUASHFS error: squashfs_read_data failed to read block 0x3ae2d854

You probably had a bad write to your media and as you probably resolved
the issue some time ago this bug report is being closed.

Should you have such a problem in the future please try the option to
check the integrity of the image from the installer boot menu, and if
this confirms that the media is corrupt, try re-writing it.

Title:
  cannot install ubuntu

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I am trying to install LTS ubuntu from a USB drive recently downloaded from the internet on a DELL insprion 1018 netbook. The software seems to have sent technical details to you already. I have previously tried ubuntu from the same download and it worked OK so pehaps the problem is with my hard disk? I told the installer to delete the disk and re install as it said the was already a copy of ubuntu on the disk from my previous attempts.
  I have just read the following guidelines so if it is my hard disk it is not a bug. In which case sorry to have bothered you. However this screen came up automatically after I followed the instructions to log in to ubuntu one
