Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
1. boot lucid daily live CD from today
2. run Ubiquity from the booted live CD
3. continue to the "select keyboard layout" dialog, where you select something
and click FORWARD
Expected:
uniquity should advance to the next step of the installation.
Actual:
nothing happens except my harddisk starts to work heavily. When I open a
terminal in parallel and install "iotop" I can see that ubiquity is running
"ntfsresize -i -f" to get some info on my partitions. However, this commands
makes many many minutes to finish on my box so a progress bar is needed.
The box has two 10K RPM SATA disks, 8GB RAM and an intel quad core Q9500
2.8GHz. Partitions looks like this:
$ sudo fdisk -l
