install crashes after downloading updates

Binary package hint: ubiquity

I am trying to install 11.04 daily image and the install crashes after updating and downloading (almost at the end). It gives an error message asking to file a bugreport (with I believe a link to launchpad.net/... instead of bugs.launchpad.net/... ).

btw, the install is clean with several OS'es installed next to this. Installed from USB and two different sticks/installs.

Now installed from (usb) cdrom and the install works ok. Apparently the live cd is not meant for usb-stick?

Redid the installation with a (usb) cdrom player and now the install works ok. Apparently my assumption that I could use the image with a usb-stick was false?

I leave the bugreport open in case it was meant to work like I thought. If some-one makes it invalid I know my assumption was false...

The live CD image is supposed to work on USB sticks too. I've looked into your syslog and I can say that my installation crashed just after the nvidia warnings too.

In my bug (I've marked my bug as a duplicate) there are two syslog files attached for the installation with/without updates (crash/no crash).

I don't have an empty CD, so I can't confirm that it works with the updates from a live CD.

After a couple of installs:

- The problem makes no difference between cd and usb.
- Both update and third party downloads together or apart make install crash.

There is a lot more debugging information on my duplicate of this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/741450

Thanks for your report. This is also bug 739632, recently fixed.
