Title:
  Quantal daily fails to complete installation

Status in “debian-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “mdadm” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The current pre-Alpha image boots but does not install.  It gets
  through the step "detecting disks and all other hardware" and
  consistently hangs at the step "Starting up the partitioner"  It only
  ever gets as far as 41%

  Pressing ESC or Ctrl-C has no effect on the installer, it stays hung.

  This is regardless of medium and happens both on CDRW and USB stick.

  Steps:

  1) download image from http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/219/builds/16652/downloads
  2) verify checksum
  3) burn image or write to USB stick
  4) verify burn/ stick
  5) install

  Edit 2012-06-25: happens on Alpha2, also.
