Gutsy uses a very old NTFS-3G which denied several mount scenarios what are supported now. For example when the NTFS partition was resized previously, or the Windows hibernation file is corrupted. There are two problems here: 1) NTFS-3G is tool old 2) Install shouldn't stop if mounting the NTFS

If you can make a custom installer then you can use the 'debug' ntfs-3g mount option and you could see on the stdout (or stderr, depending on the fuse version used) what's exactly happening with the driver and where it hangs.
