I've fixed the ubiquity crash you reported. I'll open a separate parted task on this bug for the failure to detect your disks.

[Colin Watson (cjwatson)]

Oct 23 06:26:18 ubuntu activate-dmraid: Serial ATA RAID disk(s) detected. If this was bad, boot with 'nodmraid'.
Oct 23 06:26:18 ubuntu activate-dmraid: Enabling dmraid support.
Oct 23 06:26:18 ubuntu dmraid-activate: ERROR: Raid set nvidia_dicehbge is degraded. Not activating

Are you intentionally using SATA RAID? If not, add the 'nodmraid' boot parameter when starting the installer.

This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 2.1.13

---------------
ubiquity (2.1.13) lucid; urgency=low

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Don't crash if something races with ubiquity or ubiquity-dm to create
    /var/log/installer (LP: #458806).

  [ Evan Dandrea ]
  * Support the new translated keyboard names in console-setup
    (LP: #127528).
  * Provide an option to determine the keymap from a decision tree.
  * Add missing parameter to exception in bin/ubiquity.
  * slideshow_get_available_locale is an instance method (LP: #510710).
  * The frontend always has a db attribute, per r3665, so revise the check in
    debconf_communicator. Thanks Colin Watson.
  * Add missing function argument to Install's prepare.
  * Automatic update of included source packages: console-setup
    1.34ubuntu7, grub-installer 1.49ubuntu2, partman-uboot 3.

  [ Mario Limonciello ]
  * Remove another reference to a long dead xserver-xorg debconf question.
  * Don't try reconfiguring LRM, it's been superceded by DKMS based packages.

I don't see a parted issue here, is this still happening?
