Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubiquity

This is from the second attempt to install Xubuntu

We're sorry; the installer crashed. Please file a new bug report at
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+filebug (do not
attach your details to any existing bug) and a developer will attend to
the problem as soon as possible. To help the developers understand what
went wrong, include the following detail in your bug report, and attach
the files /var/log/syslog and /var/log/partman:

My machine is an Acer Aspire 5100-3959 (Turion64 MK 2GHz). The following
disk layout was used:

On first attempt, the disk layout is listed below (around 4.5GB for Linux).
/boot    64MB
/var      1GB
/usr      1GB
/home  500MB
/            1GB
swap    500MB (I'm not sure)

On the second attemp, the partitioning tool sent a warning telling that the / 
filesystem should be 2GB or greater, so the disk layout is listed below:
/boot    128MB
/var      1GB
/usr      500MB
/home  200MB
/            2GB
swap    320MB
