I experienced the same thing. However, I also experienced the installer FAILING with a brief "oopsie" msg. When I rebooted, I was presented with a COMMAND-LINE LOGIN PROMPT. In my case, I unchecked ALL optional programs.

That might not be something anyone would normally do. Therefore, it might not be a big problem.

HOWEVER, it does seem like a problem that the ERROR MSG DISAPPEARS. If the user walked away to do something else during the install, and returned to see a normal Live desktop, they'll have nothing to associate with the resulting COMMAND-LINE LOGIN PROMPT. It will be much more mysterious.

My bug-report was erroneously marked a duplicate of this one. I wanted to make clear that there is SOMETHING ELSE/WORSE(?) HAPPENING.

Thank you (sorry for the shouting. I just wanted to emphasize what's being ADDED TO THIS BUG REPORT, not merely a duplicate.).
