Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Attempting to install Ubuntu 9.04 from one key (created with usb-creator) to another key (blank 4GB key) Using a Dell Mini 9 as the hardware for installation. Ubiquity gets to past 75% and then quits. This is constantly reproducable on this machine and makes it quite difficult to make a bootable USB stick.

Seeing as how the bootloader install is what kills ubiquity, I attempted running the following to reinstall GRUB. Check out the "[: 494: =: unexpected operator" error.
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt directory= /mnt /dev/sdc grub/device. map' grub/device. map.
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo grub-install --root-
Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time.

Installing GRUB to /dev/sdc as (hd2)...
Installation finished. No error reported.
This is the contents of the device map /mnt/boot/
Check if this is correct or not. If any of the lines is incorrect,
fix it and re-run the script `grub-install'.
