[Bug 896905] Re: Ubuntu installer crashes when "configuring apt" (near the end)

[sg4032]

My partitions were set up as following:
/dev/sda1   used as /
/dev/sdb1   used as /home
/dev/sdb2   used as /var
/dev/sdb3   used as /tmp
all formatted as ext2.

The same bug occurs with the current daily build of Ubuntu 12.04.
