[Bug 1085961] [NEW] Unable to install two raring desktops side-by-side

[Parameswaran Sivatharman]

Public bug reported:

Attempting to carry out 'Install Ubuntu13.04 alongside Ubuntu Raring Ringtail' fails and goes in al loop. Pressing 'Continue' on 'Write previous changes to disk and continue'  window leads us back to the previous screen of 'Installation Type' and the process is going in a loop.
Hence could not proceed wth the second installation.


1. Install Raring desktop 20121203 (Select entire disk and no encryptiion and no lvm)
2. Once the first installation is complete, attempt to carry out another installation
 2.1 Select 'Install Ubuntu13.04 alongside Ubuntu Raring Ringtail' and click continue
 2.1 Click 'Install now' on the disk resizing window
 2.3 Click 'Continue' on 'Write previous changes to disk and continue' window
 2.4 Now it could be seen that the initial 'Installation Type' window comes back
