[Bug 48141] Re: Installer crashes before finishing

[Lulu]

I am trying to reinstall   Lubuntu  ( L) not (x)

It was working at first, then I had trouble installing a DVD movie
player that would allow me to play a DVD.

The MOVIE PLAYER wouldn't engage, sent me messages about installing decryption files, which I did.
Then the MOVIE PLAYER would just hang, and wouldn't close, and I had to restart computer to force it to close.   My desktop was otherwise functional.

SO:  I decided to reformat hard drive, and so another install of
Lubuntu.   It crashed while installing language packs, or thereabouts.

I reported that bug.

Today I tried to install again, same thing, it hangs just after language
packs start to install.

Thanks, and may the force be with you... =))
