Bug Description
I tried to install ubuntu from the desktop-6.06-i686 live cdrom on a relatively old machine (Duron 600, 256 Meg, TNT2 graphics).
The live CD works fairly well (except it is slow, but I guess I need more memory...), and apparently everything is properly detected.
The locale is set to english with a french keyboard, and as this machine hosts several OS, the hard disk partitionning is fairly complicated (15 partitions). the / partition is only 1GB, but /usr and /var are 4GB each. The swap is 512MB and /home is several GB.
Once the installation is lauched (I mean after the 6 steps for configuration), the installer warned me that therewas an error on partition 1 (/boot), asked if I want to continue, and once I agreed, crashed with the following message:
We're sorry; the installer crashed. Please file a bug report at https:/
