Title:
  Installer crashed (Ubuntu 11.04)

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  Please email with questions:  testing at cs-comp.net

  HP Pavillion Laptop with WinXP (100GB HD), shrunk the main partition,
  deleted a 1GB partition, created a 20GB partition (primary) in space
  from shrinking, assigned for root, created a 1 GB partition (extended)
  for swap space.  Ran the installer from recently downloaded ISO 11.04
  i386 Desktop.

  At the first attempt the installer said I needed to run CHKDSK before
  it could repartition (I forget if that's what it said, but that's what
  the issue was).  After CHKDSK I used Norton Utils to defrag, used the
  Live CD to shrink the main volume (by 20GB) and delete a 1GB partition
  at the end of the drive (that I do not know what it was being used
  for, but was reported as NTFS and basically full, but with no drive
  letter assigned).

  Started the second attempt, set it to download updates while
  installing, set it going and went to bed.  In the morning it said
  installer failed, to file a new bug report and attach 2 log files
  (syslog & partman).  The option below does not seem to allow me to
  attach more than 1 file, so I combined them with syslog at the top.
