Public bug reported: On attempting to install Kubuntu 8.10 installation fails at Grub install with a fatal error. I was trying to get the installer to use existing partitions, previously used by Fedora. The format of the partitions was correctly selected and the partitions were marked to be reformatted. The only way to gain a success was to delete the partitions and recreate them again.
Once the partitions were recreated they were mounted by the installer as expected and installation completed as normal. It would be handy if the installer didn't just quit at this point, but gave the option to try again.
