Colin Unfortunately I was unable to save the log files as requested, I tried installing it again in order to reproduce the bug for a third time.since I had forgotten to include them in my original report, I started up the ubuntu installer and despite the bug occurring twice before, much to my disgust/delight I am unable reproduce the error. I cant understand it on all the occasions I performed the same actions but I simply cannot reproduce it at all, I have run the installer 7 times now and the bug only ever occured the first two. I cant explain it and I feel terrible that I may have wasted your time on this. I have unbuntu running now (very wobbly with the gnome-mixer applet crashing every 30 seconds) but I still cannot reproduce the original bug. (bad disk sector maybe?? that's the only explanation I can think of.)
I have your email address so as the ubiquity maintainer I will mail you and submit another bug report if I encounter it again. You chaps have my utmost respect in what you do, and your time would be better spent fire-fighting rather than chasing ghosts in the machine. I apologise for this, after I encountered it twice I thought I was on to a sure problem. Please close the report as unconfirmed until I can prove it exists with log files to the contrary.
