Dustin,

I don't remember what tty4 was showing at time, but I do remember that I called "ps" and I saw this process:

"dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda5"

sda5 is the swap partition created with automated partition, using the whole disk. It's a 250GB disk, and I have 4GB of RAM on this machine, so swap was automatically created with aprox. 10GB.

I think John's comment (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/432422/comments/13) could explain why this step takes so much time on my machine.
