Bug Description

I used the installation settings up to choosing my location.
I was able to find my city "Mont-real, Quebec Canada", but when I chose it, the continue button was disabled.
I tried to rechoose it again and I pressed continue but then I realized that the chosen location is just the word "Mont" and the map was pointing to somewhere in north Europe!
I pressed back to choose another location so I found myself returning to the first page of installation where I chose the default setting again which is "Install along the Windows operating system", or something like that.
I pressed continue and then I found that the new disk allocation is giving me new sizes for disks much smaller than the original. I think it was able to only see a part of the already partitioned disk!
I pressed continue, it did not ask me where I am again, but I chose the keybord layout (English US).
Then it crashed!
I think my disk partitions are damaged!!
