[Joseph Salisbury (jsalisbury)]

Do you happen to know if this issue also happens in Precise?

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement (jibel)]

It doesn't occur during an installation with Ubiquity from a desktop image. So it seems to affect only Wubi installs.

[Joseph Salisbury (jsalisbury)]

Do you happen to know if the same issue happens with Wubi installs on Precise? Just trying to determine if this is a regression or not.

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement (jibel)]

This is the first time I get this error on this system.

[Joseph Salisbury (jsalisbury)]

Can you post the version of Windows this issue is happening with?

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement (jibel)]

Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement (jibel)]

It is not reproducible with Wubi r270 and Ubuntu disk image 20120625.
I'm closing this report.
