Comment 9 for bug 946124

I encountered this bug when I quit the installer during in installation of the quantal-desktop-i386.iso in VirtualBox on an Ubuntu 12.04 host. As also indicated in comment #7 also to me it was indicated that bug #1008818 was the issue.

Note 1: The reason to quit the installer was the fact that it indicated I was not connected to the internet. However, when opening Firefox it turned out I was connected.
Note 2: The issue did not appear again when restarting the installer, so maybe quiting it was the cause?
