Could you please attach /var/log/installer/syslog, /var/log/syslog, and /var/log/partman to this bug, using the "Add Attachment" link on the bug's web page? Thanks in advance.

Tried installing again, this time to a freshly formatted partition - and it worked.

Dunno if this is now anymore interesting for you...

[CarstenKaefert (zimmer-pflanze)]

Nevertheless, I'll attach the requested files!

You're welcome - and thank you for making great software like this:)

[CarstenKaefert (zimmer-pflanze)]

Sorry, I guess you'll have to scroll a bit through this files, as my second try for installing is finishing right now - successfully, I guess;)

[Colin Watson (cjwatson)]

Thanks for your report. At present, you must reformat system partitions (e.g. /, /boot, /usr, or /var) during installation; bug 47046 is filed to note that the partitioner should warn you about this up-front. If you are upgrading an existing installation, then please see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades rather than using this installer.
