Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Target system has two existing NTFS partitions. The first is supposed to be FAT32 for a future FreeDOS install and the second is WinXP. Test performed with Xubuntu Herd5 liveCD. If I change the first partition to FAT32 during manual partitioning, the migration assistant subsequently fails.
Relevant terminal output is as follows:
Mar 14 04:33:53 ubiquity: Partman: state = [['', None, None]]

Can you please re-run the installer with the -d option, and attach the /var/log/ installer/ debug file when migration-assistant crashes?
Thanks!
