Dave: What exactly do you mean by mark?

By default (choosing manual partitioning) the nfts drive is marked with fs=ntfs and mountpoint=/media/sdaX, the fat drive is marked with fs=fat32 and mountpoint=/media/sdaY
This setup will hang.
I tried (new boot from CD) changing the fs mark on the ntfs partition to "don't use" (keeping fat on default) - did not work.
I tried (new boot from CD) changing the fs mark on the fat partition to "don't use" (keeping ntfs on default) - did not work.
I finally tried (new boot from CD) changing both partitions to "don't use" - did not work.

The only way I got around this was to use --no-migration-assistant.

Dave: What exactly do you mean by "To install Gutsy do not mark the ntfs partition in the partition editor"?
