Error while Partitioning the HD during installation.

[Sam!r Jadhav]

My existing Pc config -

Amd 2600+, 1Gb Ram, 1 harddisk 120Gb, 1 hard disk 80 Gb,

hard disk1
/dev/hda1 - 7.8Gb - Fat32 - existing Windows boot partition
/dev/hda2 - 31.2 Gb - Fat32
/dev/hda3 - 31.2 Gb - Fat32

hard disk2
/dev/hdc1 - 31.2 Gb - Fat32
/dev/hdc2 - 31.2 Gb - Fat32

I booted from the live cd of Ubu.ntu 6.06 LTS.
Selected manual partition edit option.
Deleted existing partitions on hard disk2.
Added new partitions as below.

Hard disk2 new Partitions
01 - linux-swap - 1024 Mb
02 - /boot - 128 Mb
03 - / - 4086 Mb
04 - new partition - Balance space, around 70Gb plus.

After completing the formating , when the list of partitions is displayed, Unlike the other partition info, The ' / ' partition didnot display the amount of disk space & the purpose of the partition. eg ( /, /boot, /usr, /var, /home etc )

When I attempted to select the ' / 'option from the drop down list. The installation crashed and displayed the following error.

Traceback.
File"/usr/lib/python2.4/Site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py"Line 620, in on_list_changedself.size_widgets[index].set_text(self.set_size_msg(self.partion_widgets[index]))

Key error:'hdc4'

The installation crashed and I was back at the Ubuntu live Cd destop screen.

Thanks for your report. This is also bug 45200, and is fixed in Ubuntu 6.06.1.
