FWIW, when I let ubiquity take me to a 'live' DE after the above failure, I 
tried installing from within the live DE again checking the 2 update/addcodcs 
boxes. On reboot I did the [code]sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install 
aptitude && sudo aptitude safe-upgrade[/code]
However, the Ambiance theme was broken and my gtk themes were not accepting 
changes (via Control-Center>Appearances).
Tried a reinstall, again checking the 2 updates/add codecs boxes - failed 
again; at the live DE tried without the 2 boxes checked but again got broken 
gtk themes. Note both times from the failed Ubuity installer I opted to delete 
and reformat the partition /dev/sdc3 as ext4 mount point as /
The last time, I ran the install CD with the updates/add codecs boxes 
unchecked, ran the aptitude safe-upgrade, added restricted drivers etc and all 
was fine. 
Haven't messed with xfs since circa 2001 on a mandrake-x.y install that 
completely trashed my U320 SCSI drives, curious as to why xfsprogs is being 
pulled in considering Ubuntu's target audience.
