[Bug 743359] Re: Installer: LockFailedException: Failed to lock /target/var/cache/apt/archives/lock

[axel]

Hi, frustrating installation process! Always at the end:....removing packages the whole installer crashes. Installation thus incomplete.Trying again and again...just the same. Installation CD  is told to be not clean...nonsense! It is as clean as clean can be!
Do not really know what to do about this. Download new iso file from ubuntu with a fix?? Please notify me as i am new to this and not familiar with repair procedurers. Greetings Axel
