Marked to Confirmed. After more carefully reviewing your syslog file, I have a theory:
You have a 2.66 GHz Core 2 Duo, with 1 GB of RAM, 500 MB of swap, several large hard disks with Windows installed on one partition. Syslog shows several errors trying to enumerate the NTFS partition. It's possible that enumeration problem caused a memory leak/fill up. Installation proceeded normally until some thread required more RAM (like setting up timezone and reading the timezone database). Is it possible to disconnect the windows hard drive cable and try to reinstall on another physical disk drive? Perhaps you can do a scandisk on the windows drive and check it for errors. I don't have any windows machines that I can tinker with to test. The one XP Pro machine that I have has a Citrix client that I can't mess with. Let us know what finally works to get a successful install. ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- [out of memory] installer crashed cause: timezone https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/194130 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
