Hi, Guys a similar bug to this one still exists in the 6 April 2010 daily image.
Yesterday I spent all day trying to install Lucid on my laptop. I wanted a manual partitioning approach, but I cannot complete the installation. The problem I experimented is not on the partitioning step - this works correctly. Layer on, the installation proceeds but when the filesystems are created (first phase of the showcase installer, let me say) I repeatedly got a window stating that the kernel cannot read the partition table, a reboot is needed. After that, the installer stops and goes back to the partitioning step. Here I found a partition table completely messed up - I found two swap partitions, as an example. Eventually, the installer crashes completely. In the end, I managed to install Lucid by creating the partitions with gparted. Then the installer worked ok. Too bad I have no logs to submit, but I suggest to test this scenario since it is definitely important. Please let me know should you need any further information!
