Hi! As I got that error message when upgrading from Ubuntu 9.10 to the 
latest version,  I downloaded the Ubuntu's latest version from it's web 
site, I burned it to a CD and tried to install that version directly. When 
doing that, I haven't received any error message. The installation was 
successfull. Thanks for your help.
