I felt I should mention, even though I'm using herd2 I ran this prior to running the installer:
sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install ubiquity console-setup This was due to another bug with screen graphic coruption and I believe another issue related to the partitioner. Hopefully I can run the same cmd if there is an update for ubiquity so I can successfully install without having to burn another disc. -- herd2 gui installer forces format of partition https://launchpad.net/bugs/80793 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
