Title:
  Saucy ubiquity crashes with kernel error

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This is actually just a follow up on bug #1220165 so it should
  probably be marked as a duplicate, but this time I launched ubiquity
  from the terminal with the command "ubiquity -d" in hopes that it
  might provide more helpful info.

  I'm testing on bare metal:

  Intel Atom CPU  230 @ 1.60GHz
  Intel 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
  Intel N10/ICH 7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)
  Realtek RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 02)
  2GB DDR2 RAM

  The existing drive structure is a quite simple dual-boot of Lubuntu
  Saucy i386 and Ubuntu GNOME Saucy i386 on a physical 80 GB drive:

  ubuntu-gnome at ubuntu-gnome:~$ sudo parted -l
  Model: ATA WDC WD800BB-63JK (scsi)
  Disk /dev/sda: 80.0GB
  Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
  Partition Table: msdos

  Number  Start   End     Size    Type      File system     Flags
   1      1049kB  39.7GB  39.7GB  primary   ext4            boot
   2      39.7GB  80.0GB  40.3GB  extended
   6      39.7GB  77.5GB  37.8GB  logical   ext4
   5      77.5GB  80.0GB  2525MB  logical   linux-swap(v1)

  
  Warning: Unable to open /dev/sr0 read-write (Read-only file system).  /dev/sr0
  has been opened read-only.
  Error: Can't have a partition outside the disk!                

  I also decided this time to record the UUID's prior to trying the
  install.

  ubuntu-gnome at ubuntu-gnome:~$ sudo blkid -c /dev/null
  /dev/loop0: TYPE="squashfs" 
  /dev/sr0: LABEL="Ubuntu-GNOME 13.10 i386" TYPE="iso9660" 
  /dev/sda1: UUID="9925ab08-025e-433b-be3e-b71703a99549" TYPE="ext4" 
  /dev/sda5: UUID="846a1c94-cadb-499d-a5f8-6317e7e0b918" TYPE="swap" 
  /dev/sda6: UUID="13cf3a15-45c3-4eef-bae7-6fa29a4a50b9" TYPE="ext4" 

  When offered installation options I chose "Erase disk and install
  Ubuntu GNOME" and shortly thereafter I was presented with that message
  about the kernel not being informed of modifications, and this is what
  the new drive/partition info is while ubiquity is still in a frozen
  state:

  ubuntu-gnome at ubuntu-gnome:~$ sudo parted -l
  Model: ATA WDC WD800BB-63JK (scsi)
  Disk /dev/sda: 80.0GB
  Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B

   5      77.9GB  80.0GB  2136MB  logical   linux-swap(v1)

  
  Warning: Unable to open /dev/sr0 read-write (Read-only file system).  /dev/sr0
  has been opened read-only.
  Error: Can't have a partition outside the disk!                           

  ubuntu-gnome at ubuntu-gnome:~$ sudo blkid -c /dev/null

  /dev/sr0: LABEL="Ubuntu-GNOME 13.10 i386" TYPE="iso9660"

  /dev/sda6: UUID="13cf3a15-45c3-4eef-bae7-6fa29a4a50b9" TYPE="ext4" 

  It's hard for me to read that until I get on another computer that's
  tweaked for my limited vision so please give me time to review this.

  Sorry to be so dense, I hope I didn't make too many typos, and
  apologies if I'm only wasting electronic ink.
