Same problem on todays daily. I started the install from Live USB with: 'ubiquity --debug' (and why doesn't tail -f /var/log/installer/debug show me anything? Using tail -f on syslog doesn't show any messages either?)
Some output: Feb 11 11:04:37 ubuntu activate-dmraid: No Serial ATA RAID disks detected Feb 11 11:04:38 ubuntu partman: No matching physical volumes found Feb 11 11:04:38 ubuntu partman: Reading all physical volumes.
