Bug Description
Description: Ubuntu precise (development branch)
Release: 12.04
ubiquity:
Installed: 2.9.23
Candidate: 2.9.23
Version table:
*** 2.9.23 0
500 http://
100 /var/lib/
I expected the installation to complete and the bootloader to get installed.
We did the "Something Else" option, kept the existing sda1 new world boot partition, created a 2048m swap partition as sda2 and the rest of the drive as sda3 ext4 mountpoint /
The color theme looked a bit dark and hard to read but this is a Beta so that might be normal.
Things looked like they were going fine for about a half hour then we got a message that the installer crashed.
