I have just hit this problem using the release version of Kubuntu. >From the comment above about a non-empty filesystem, I have looked at the partitions and it appears that despite telling the installer to format them, it has failed to do so, as there are many old files still there.
I noticed during the install that there were a large number of messages in /var/log/syslog like: Nov 1 16:09:40 ubuntu python: Not copying usr/lib/xulrunner- addons/extensions/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/chrome/it.jar which is probably indicative of something. I will now try again after manually emptying the relevant filesystems. If that fails, I'll have to restore from my backups. I'll try to report back here when I have a working system again. -- ubiquity crashed with OSError in copy_all() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/188976 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
