I tried doing an apt-get update / upgrade before trying again and this
time installation finished. I thought it might be a fluke so tried the
same thing again and even with the updates, the installer still crashed.

I don't know if it's related, but I've had a couple of installer crashes
before the 'Copying Files' stage. The installer is 'Scanning files' (or
similar), it hits 15% and then doesn't do anything else. Sometimes the
system speaker beeps, sometimes it doesnt, sometimes there's a crash
report, sometimes there's not, sometimes X freezes, sometimes it
doesn't... It might be the same problem as what's causing the bug
reported above but unfortunately I don't have any log files to hand
atm... Let me know if you want them/want me to file a separate bug
report.
