Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

Tried installing using the Kubuntu 8.10, running in KVM. It got past copying files; I think the last thing I saw it was configuring apt. Then it crashes.

Looking at the function it crashed in, perhaps it was because I'd opened the KDE4 virtual keyboard and started playing with it :-).

You're out of disk space in the installed system:

Jan 7 11:48:55 ubuntu ubiquity: cp: writing `/target/etc/default/console-setup': No space left on device

We should report this better.
