Title:
  installation failure

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  Installing Dual boot (Win MCE, Mythbuntu)  on computer with 2 drives.
  1st drive has NTFS partition, then 15G root, 4G swap. 2nd drive first
  partition is JFS and labeled /var (best I could do for media drive
  with installer), then final partition is FAT32 for sharing. Seemed to
  get pretty  far along without problems. Toward the end I noticed GRUB
  install, then failure.

  1. Mythbuntu 11.04
  2. ISO install
  3. Expected Dualboot Machine
  4. Got an install failure.
