Title:
  kubuntu installer crashes at the end

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  asus p5w-dh motherboard about 6gb ram, ati video card on the pci bus,
  has a single drive and also a raid5 array.

  it gets past asking location and time zone and is well into installing
  and when it looks like its finished just reports the installer
  crashed.  this time which is the 5th? i read thee instructions and
  typed up the command to collect and report the logfile.  on the
  terminal window it would say some error client id killed?  i already
  had konquerer open, closed it then again ran the command and this time
  it has dozens of errors that read connect: Cannot connect
  (null)::walletOpened(bool) toKWebWallet::

  so its not obvious if it reported anything or not.  i had this error
  when there was no internet connection at the time of running, then
  enabled internet and ran, same exact thing.

  i had the same error when running with the raid5 enabled or had it
  disabled in bios.  ONE problem that stood out, when trying to run the
  partition window, it has created another SDA each time its runs, i
  tried manual to maybe re use the partition, it had the label for my
  raid5 array but was listing the single 320gb hard drive.

  Running this kubuntu install is from a CD that was made with an iso
  file downloaded in the past couple days from ubuntu, running this on
  my other configuration, it obliterated my windows Vista login, all
  that happens is a grub screen appears.  type boot it says no kernel
  loaded.  type load it says command not recognized.

  had to add another hard drive to the system; thought ahead to backup
  some of those files, then try to install kubuntu.  this is about the
  10th-11th attempt to install Kubuntu including the ones with Wubi that
  did not install properly on the other drive and on the raid5.  that
  one is 149 x 3 where its just 149x2 or 298Gb (or so) the single hard
  drive is 320gb
