[Bug 825704] [NEW] Wubi installer crashed while installing amd64 natty (no /var/log/syslog or /var/log/partman available)

[Radu C]

Public bug reported:

- dual-boot along Win7
- wubi install (11.04-desktop-amd64) always crashes while "Checking for packages to remove..."
- message box:
"Installation failed
The installer encountered an unrecoverable error and will now reboot. [OK]"
- opened \ubuntu\disks\root.disk with ext2explore in Win7 after reboot, but there were no /var/log/syslog OR /var/log/partman files to be found inside the disk image.

after seeing current bug reports and guidelines, will retry the install
using manual hard reset, see if I can retrieve any of the required log
files, at all.
