Bug Description

Booting off of the kubuntu live cd and trying to use the Install application to install Kubuntu. Laptop is a Thinkpad A31 with two 40 gig drives. First drive is partitioned into 3 partitions, the third partition being an NTFS partition. When I click on Manually edit partition table the app crashes and I get the following information:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 112, in ?
    install(sys.argv[1])
  File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 52, in install
    ret = wizard.run()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/kde-ui.py", line 305, in run
    self.process_step()

    if self.manual_choice is None or unicode(choice, "utf-8") == self.manual_choice:
