Problem solved (at least for me)!

This is valid for all PC's!

1. Remove all HDD's physically
2. Configure in BIOS your SATA port(s) "hot-swap-capeable"
3. Boot your PC with the Ubuntu 13.10 Live CD/USB device
4. Ignore error: "no physical device found"
5. If you are on GUI-level re-attach your HDD(s) and install Ubuntu

The problem occurs espacially if your previous installation contains a Software-Raid (mdadm) in combination with full encryption (cryptsetup)

Good luck!
