If one has a running Ubuntu 11.10 system and then boots an Ubuntu 11.04 CD and chooses to install Ubuntu you are presented with an option to "Upgrade from 11.10 to 11.04". Choosing this option results in a crash.
TEST CASE
1) Install Ubuntu 11.10
2) Try to reinstall Ubuntu 11.04 (because you are dissatisfied with the new release for some reason)
3) At the allocate drive space screen choose "Upgrade 11.10 to 11.04" (because you don't want to lose your data)
4) During the copying files phase observe a crash |

After the crash ubiquity became non-responsive and I went to a tty to reboot the system. The system fails to boot after choosing either the regular or recovery boot option from 11.10. |
