    print >>self.gparted_subp.stdin, "apply"
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'stdin'

The crash notification window is asking me to attach /var/log/installer/syslog, /var/log/syslog, and /var/log/partman, but I don't know how to.

Thanks for your report, which is also bug 48856. The program used for advanced partitioning, gparted, appears to have crashed. The version of the installer present in Ubuntu/Edubuntu/Xubuntu 6.06.1 deals with this more gracefully. If you can reproduce the gparted crash by running it directly from the System -> Administration menu, then please file a separate bug against gparted.
