OK now things get strange. Following on from above I tested an install
with Kubuntu daily build 20070402. Selecting guided - auto resize at the
partitioning stage works fine and the install completes without errors.
Following this I attempted to install by selecting 'guided - use entire
disk' at the partitioning stage. This induced the same error as the
original post. So I attempted the same fix suggested by Colin Watson
above and repeated the install process. This time the installer crashed
at Installing system - 5%
Here's the traceback:
