Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
i tried installing ubuntu 6.10 on a computer with fedora core 6; fedora
/ on the first partition, /home on the second partition, ubuntu / on the
third, swap on the fourth. fedora and ubuntu sharing /home and swap.
The installer crashed when installing grub; i told the installer to
install grub in an alternate location instead of writing over the fedora
grub boot loader.
