Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

Ubiquity version: 1.0.1
Daily desktop cd 2006/05/23

I'm installing on a machine with two drives, hda and hdb - both of which already contain ext3 partitions, although I want to select hda and use the entire disk.

I get the "Select a disk" screen, where I have hda and hdb as choices. I accept the default selection of hda and click "Forward". I get the "Prepare disk space" screen, and the "Starting up the partitioner" progress bar. In the background I can see a grayed-out widget to select the new partition size.

Then it immediately dumps me back at the "Select a disk" screen with hda and hdb as choices. Forward again, same thing. Infinite loop.
