I just experienced the same crash on manual install for the daily snapshot from 3 September, 2012. i386, if it matters.

There were a few respins on the 3rd of september so 20120903.1 for example may not worked, but some later ones did. So please use 4th of september images. They should for sure work.

Or simply check the ubiquity package version in the live-environment / tty1
Or upgrade ubiquity in the live-environment before running it.
