crash during installation from usb

[gordon c]

Was resizing, changing partitions without reformating root. Application crashed right before finishing installation. Might reinstall if trouble persists after restart.

Hope someone can solve this bug. I cannot reboot the pc after a hard shutdown. So I reinstall the system from the usb. Then the same thing happened as above described. The only distinction is my package used ubiquity 2.10.24. Thanks.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

12.04 has reached end of life and is no longer supported.
