I had the same problem. However, before I installed, I had to use GNU parted to 
partition my drive as both the Gnome Partition Editor and the installer claimed 
my drive was empty (it had an OS X installation on it). Now the installer and 
Gnome partition editor see my partitions, but these errors occur.
The partition that OS X is installed to is HFS+ rather than HFS, I think this 
may be the Apple_Bootstrap partition mentioned in the first error message, so 
should I have installed OS X differently?

As for the 'Known Ubiquity issues in Ubuntu 6.06 LTS' link given
earlier, I didn't set a boot strap partition on the mount points page,
and I still get the errors mentioned above.

Here is the 'installer crashed' report (/var/log/syslog was empty):
Traceback (most recent call last):
