Installer crashed while deleting disc partition

[Robert Hawkins]

I was deleting disc partitions to make space for the Ubuntu installation. I had already removed one partition, and on deleting a second, the installer crashed, giving me the following traceback in a pop-up window:-

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/kde_components/PartitionModel.py", line 111, in parent
    parentItem = childItem.parent()
AttributeError: 'Partition' object has no attribute 'parent'

I then noticed that five identical pop-up windows had appeared, all on top of each other, and containing the same traceback information.

In case it is relevant: The disc had 9 partitions, some primary and some logical, and they weren't arranged in numerical order.

Were you using ubiquity to delete the partitions or another tool? Thanks in advance.

Hi Brian,
Thanks for your reply.
I was using the partition editor within Ubiquity to delete the partitions.
