  I am doing the installation using Virtual DVD method.
  I have triggered the installation using the Virtual DVD ISO ubuntu 15.04 image and followed the steps of installation of Ubuntu 15.04 menu.

  I am attaching the Console output and also the /var/log/syslog data in
  this bugzilla.

  This problem seem to have started after Jan 17th Daily ISO. I am able to install using daily ISO's before 17th.
