Title:
  ubiquity crashed with InstallStepError in configure_bootloader()

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  This is probably a duplicate of closed/dormant bug 71984, but I have
  opened a new one because it occurred on Intrepid alpha 4 and I want to
  be sure you have an up-to-date set of documentation.

  I suspect the crash is caused by my choice of an install that has
  fallen outside the validation box. I was trying to install a
  standalone intrepid system on a new partition of a multiboot machine.
  However, in manual partitioning I did NOT mount the existing grub
  partition as /boot. I guess the install was confused when trying to
  install another grub boot loader. I will retry the installation with
  the existing /boot mounted.
