I had the same problem with Xubuntu Gutsy Beta. The installer failed to continue after I hit 'skip' whilst downloading the language packs.

Hi!

  What i learned is that the language pack is needed for the installation, and if i dont skip it, it worked fine on the second installation try. I was installing both languages, english and spanish, so i think it just triggered the problem. Would be nice if it just says "package needed for installation options selected", dont you think?

Triaged to Confirmed. Demonstrated repeatability. At least one language pack is required. I think English pack is default. It's possible that there is an error in the install script. Need to verify in Gutsy and Hardy Alpha. A dialog needs to be display that says "English" will be installed if "Skip" is selected. And of course, it has to work.
