Title:
  ubiquity crashed with KeyError in get_current_disk_partman_id()

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  Trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat 64 bit on Sony Vaio Z
  (VPCZ13) via live cd. This possibly has to do with the default RAID 0
  configuration of two combined 64 GB SSD hard disks, with Windows 7
  pre-installed.

  Checked with GParted and it doesn't recognize the RAID disk. It
  detects multiple drives sda, sdb and sdc. In Disk Utility it does
  detect a Mobile 82801 SATA RAID Controller with both disks and DVD
  underneath, and below Peripheral Devices there are 4 drives, the
  actual partitions as seen in Windows admin tool.

  Maybe I need to remove RAID and reinstall Windows 7 on one drive,
  Ubuntu on the other. As there is no Windows installation disc with my
  new laptop, I hope that a shrink of the Windows partition (with
  Windows admin tools) can make it fit in one drive and won't break when
  I remove RAID 0.

  I will try the alternate install CD first, before destroying my
  filesystem.
