Bug Description
Binary package hint: hw-detect
I have a new Toshiba Satellite (L355-S7812) that I tried to install the most recent Ubuntu Hardy beta on. The installer cannot detect anything during the network hardware detection step, and later during the main hardware detection process the installer seems to hang. (I left it sitting for at least a couple of hours.)
I installed Gutsy, which worked perfectly fine, then tried upgrading to Hardy. The updater program downloaded and started running, but hung up in the first "Preparing to upgrade" step. (I had run the upgrade from the command line and couldn't even stop it with ctrl-C. I had to switch to another terminal and use 'kill'.)

Thanks for reporting bugs. What do you mean by "main hardware detection process"? How is your computer connected to the network? Did the installer or the upgrader manage to reach the internet?
