Bug Description

Testing installation of current daily build 20120406 Lubuntu-precise-desktop amd64. Manual install selected to install in free space with one other existing precise install on Hard Drive. Nothing was selected to migrate to new install, but ran unmount problems and install crashed. I had chosen to install grub into installation partition. Will try the install again and let grub install in MBR.

Repeated crash see below.

An error occurred while migrating data. More details may be found in /var/log/syslog. The installation will continue, but some or all of the documents and settings you requested may not have been transferred to the installed system.
