ubiquity crashed with OSError in chroot_cleanup() in Ubuntu 10.04 VM in VirtualBox 3.2.2

Binary package hint: ubiquity

1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Release: 10.04

2) apt-cache policy ubiquity

3) What I expected to happen is when I tried to do a fresh install of a MD5 verified iso of Ubuntu 10.04, downloaded from www.ubuntu.com, into a VirtualBox 3.2.2 virtual machine (VM)m it would install without any problem.

4) What happened instead is that when I tried to install it (for the third time) it failed and crashed.

New version of VirtualBox came out (3.2.4) which seems to be the root cause of this problem. This bug is considered closed.
