hi!

i'm experiencing the same problem installing 7.10 using the net install
(http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso)

my machine is a dell t105 (opteron 1212) which has a sata-controller (nvidia ck804), 2 sata hdd (going to be raid1) and a sata dvd-rom.
not sure if that might be a controller (kernel) problem, because regular cd-install (using xubuntu 7.10 amd64 alternate cd) fails. it can't find linux on the cd / can't mount the device correctly.

so i used net install, partitioned, the packages are retreived, but at some point installations stops with the aforementioned message.
i get the install-menu and start the mini-httpd to get syslog
