Bug Description
The installer presents a progress window with a close button when it begins to partition and copy files. If the user presses this button, the window will disappear but the process will continue in the background. The fix is a one-liner to disable the close button entirely as it's more dangerous to let them cancel the install halfway through (leaving their system unbootable) than it is to force them to sit through the rest of it.
TEST CASE:
It should not be possible to close the main install progress window. There should be no close button on the window.
The proposed patch as included in the ubiquity 1.8.9 upload can be found here:

Original report:
When installing kubuntu(daily-live, 20070417), i clicked cancel after the beginning of the installation process, the small window with the progress bar closed, but the installation continued in the background.
