Title:
  ubiquity crashes at ~82% when installing ubuntu from usb key to usb
  key on Dell Mini 9

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have run into a bug on a Dell Mini 9, both trying to install jaunty
  and karmic, ubiquity crashed at 82% without popping up a crash report
  dialog.

  I have tested this process on other hardware, where it works well, so
  it only seems to affect the mini 9.

  Steps to reproduce:
  -Create a jaunty or karmic desktop live cd
  -Boot mini 9 from usb key
  -Open ubiquity and install onto another (blank) usb key

  Result:
  -Ubiquity crashes  at ~70 without bringing up an apport dialog
  -USB key with (half-done) installation does not boot

  Expecting:
  -Ubiquity should not crash
  -USB key should be bootable

  Once again, let me warn you that this only happens on this mini 9. I'm
  not quite sure why.
