Bug Description

DPKG crash at the end of Ubuntu's install while processing linux-signed-generic.

From the syslog :
Feb 17 14:35:08 ubuntu ubiquity: Version of linux-headers-generic on system is 4.13.0.21.22.
Feb 17 14:35:08 ubuntu ubiquity:

(the entire syslog is uploaded with this bug report)

And not sure if this is caused by a hardware-side problem (bad ISO on the LiveUSB, RAM fcked-up or whatever), but I prefer to report this.
