Public bug reported: Installing 14.04 desktop from a live session. The swap partition had been turned off using gparted. The swap partition is one of a number of manually set partitions on a 2 disk (HDD & SSD) install. Without the swap partition turned off, the install script stalls at the point at which packages should start to be installed. The system has 16GiB of RAM.
