Bug Description

Lubuntu 12.04 instller crashes during slideshow, while "Checking for packages to install".
I'm trying to install on an Acer TravelMate 370 (Pentium M, 2GB of RAM) on a partition with 15GB (automatically created during installation by manually deleting the 15GB partition and letting the installer create whatever partitions is finds necessary).

I'm trying this version of Lubuntu because I had problems installing newer versions due to a problem with PAE.
