Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
On an HP dv2000z laptop, I attempted to install the Hardy Beta x86_64
alongside WinXP on an 80GB drive. I manually partitioned the hd
successfully, but the installer froze completely towards the end of the
installation at "Removing Packages". After a hard shutdown, the
computer refused to boot back to the BIOS screen, so I removed the
primary battery for about 30 seconds. Then, it booted into a "grub>"
terminal. I think WinXP partition is still on the hard drive someplace,
but the GRUB installation must have gotten corrupted. This is scary.
** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu)
