*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 47046 *** Kyle, thanks for your report. At present, you must reformat system partitions (e.g. /, /boot, /usr, or /var) during installation; bug 47046 is filed to note that the partitioner should warn you about this up- front. If you are upgrading an existing installation, then please see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades rather than using this installer.
Everyone else who's been piling into this bug: please file new bugs about installer crashes rather than tagging your information onto an existing bug. Only two of two have the same issue as the original reporter, and I suspect that was more by luck than judgement. Installer crash bugs where lots of people pile in with differing problems very quickly turn into a nightmare for me to unpick. ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 47046 breaks if system partitions are not reformatted -- Installer Crashed https://launchpad.net/bugs/49533 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
