Title:
  Installer failed while trying to resize partitions

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  My current partition of Ubuntu was unaccessible after I switched from
  nouvea to nvidia graphic driver. Ubuntu would not boot all the way as
  the screen would lash during boot and the system would hang. I decided
  to reinstall Ubuntu but I ran into errors installing a fresh ubuntu
  system to replace the broken one of when installing it side by side
  the old system. I have Mac OSX as my main system so I could not wipe
  the drive.
