Bug Description

After selecting a partition to install to the installer spent some time downloading packages and then crashed.

I was able to pick my timezone and the installer was showing me tips about Ubuntu. Not sure exactly what state the progress bar was in when the crash occured.

This is a new PC with Windows 8. I created a partition from windows for the install and booted from a USB drive. I disabled UEFI in the BIOS and disabled fastboot too.

The disk is two 256gb ssds which are striped and shown as a ssingle 500gb drive. This was the factory setup and I'm not sure of all the details but can find any that are important.
