Title:
  11.04 (non-beta) installer crashes

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  Just downloaded the 11.04 installer - the installer crashes midway
  through the installation (towards the end of "moving files", iirc),
  with a message to make a bug report and upload /var/log/syslog and
  /var/log/partman (they're both in the attachment called "log")
