Based on the solution to Bug#298509, retried installing 10.04 beta2. After the first crash, a gnome desktop appeared. I clicked on Accessories to open a terminal to type "ubiquity --no-migration-assistant", before hitting the "install ubuntu 10.04" folder. After selecting boot loader location, I deliberately chose NOT to migrate any documents or settings and proceed with Install. The installation or ubiquity crashed near the very end. Screen went black then same ubuntu desktop re-appears with error message: "ubiquity crashed with value error in command()".
Crash report details has "permission denied: /proc/16194/environ
