Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

 Running Lucid in a VirtualBox VM and pauses/hangs at several times throughout the installer... takes about 10 minutes at "Configuring hardware" and then about 5 minutes at "dpkg"

Here is the past of the crash, this is Kubuntu

Don't know if we can mark this as invalid now, but downloaded the current daily as of tonight EDT and had no problems installating in virtualbox
