Bug Description
Even with the flight 7 version of Kubuntu 6.06 LTS I encounter a bug upon step 6 (partitioning) of the graphical install wizard on the live CD. Once picking any of the offered partitioning modes in step 6, the installer crashes with the following output:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/
install(
File "/usr/bin/
ret = wizard.run()
File "/usr/lib/
self.
File "/usr/lib/
self.
File "/usr/lib/
if self.manual_choice is None or unicode(choice, "utf-8") == self.manual_choice:
TypeError: decoding Unicode is not supported
Looks like a bug in the python script, happened to me with beta2 as well.
Hope you can fix it soon - good luck

The traceback shows different lines where the installer is crashing.
