Installer of Kubuntu crashed while selecting a disk to install it on

[McFly81]

Hi there. I tried to install Kubuntu on my PC (Athlon XP 2800+, NVidia Geforce 6600GT). At the poit where I have to select a disk it crashes. I wonder about the following (maybe it has something to do with the crash): The menu shows me the choices

  * /dev/hda: IDE1 master (hda) - 160.0 GB SAMSUNG SP1614N
  * /dev/hdb: IDE1 slave (hdb) - 60.0 GB WD600AB-00BVA0
  *
  * Use the largest continuous free space
  * Manually edit partition table

I don´t know why this empty radio button appears. I can select it, there´s no text. The partition manager works, I tried it seperatly.
I already installed Kubuntu on this computer successfully a few days ago. But I wanted to try out Ubuntu (gnome Desktop) as well, so I formatted the disk (hdb) and installed ubuntu. And now the installation of Kubuntu does not work any more.

Here is the Traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/kde-ui.py", line 536, in on_next_clicked

Thanks for your report. This is also bug 41865, and is fixed in current daily builds (http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/daily-live/current/, though at the time of writing you'll want to wait for the next daily build for another fix affecting users of multiple-disk systems).

I believe the empty radio button has also been fixed since the build you're using.
