I experienced this bug while installing Ubuntu besides Windows Vista. Here's my workaround: Kill Ubiquity (the installer) via terminal when it freezes at "laptop-detect": $ sudo killall ubiquity Then restart it: $ sudo ubiquity And then choose "Upgrade existing Ubuntu installation". Then the installation finishes without any problems.
