Comment 2 for bug 703552

Thanks for sending this in Laura. Looking at the logs, it's not clear what's going wrong. Given your description this is likely to be a problem in either jockey (which the installer calls if you check the "use third-party software"), or partman, the partitioning backend.

Are you checked the "use third-party software" box? Does the bug still occur if you do not check it? If it does not, what is the result of running `sudo jockey-text -a` in a fresh live CD session?

If the bug does still occur regardless of whether or not that box is checked, can you please run the install manually from the live CD desktop in debug mode. To do this, click "Try Install" from the first installer screen, then open a terminal and type `ubiquity -d`. When the installer hangs, run `apport-collect 703552`.

Thanks!
