Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Tried to do a hard drive installation from the feisty hord 2 livecd on my apple iBook G4 800 Mhz laptop. During step 6 (partitioning) it crashed.
I guess it first tried to do some default suggestion but failed, I got some error message that it didn't find any free disk space. When I click ok it stalled for a while and then crashed with the error message below.
I have a 120 GB samsung hard disk with 2 pratitions each 60 GB (already partitioned and formated in mac os x). The first is a journaled HFS+ partition for mac os x and the second is a UFS formated partition. I would like to install ubuntu on the second partition.
Error message:

Thanks for your bug report. This is actually a duplicate of bug 76976 and has been fixed in the latest version of ubiquity. You could run `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install debconf ubiquity`to get the latest version when running the Live CD or you could wait for Herd 3 which will be released shortly.
