I think the ubiquity error may be a red herring. The real problem was the original failure to install due to an "unable to find radeon GEM object" error (see syslog). As this was fault condition I cannot be sure what state the PC was in when it defaulted to the desktop session and crashed out of ubiqity.

We just tell dpkg where the files go and it puts them there. I'm switching this over to Ubiquity, which does do fancy things :) Funny that it would hit an error on a specific locale. Were any other crashes reported? ** Package changed: ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu (Ubuntu) => ubiquity (Ubuntu) -- package ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu 28 failed to install/upgrade: unable to securely remove '/target/usr/share/ubiquity-slideshow/slides/loc.ast/welcome.html.dpkg-tmp': Read-only file system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/657728 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug.
