Thanks to Rick Graves for making me see the light!!!   (slaps forehead
in a "why didn't I think of that" gesture!!)

I've spent about 5 hours on this problem today, which is added to the
'at least' 5 hours I have probably spent over the last SIX releases
fighting this same *(&*^&% problem.

But by selecting just the '/' partition (already had a swap present and
didn't even select it), I am now loading 13.04 beta 1.

Why in hades hasn't this problem been fixed about 5 releases ago????

And Graves solution is not something that someone relatively new to
Kubuntu would want to do...  so it kinda make linux look bad to
newbies.....
