Bug description:
  Release note:

  A bug was found in migration-assistant that prevents some users with
  separate home partitions from completing the install successfully.
  Users who experience such a crash can disable migration-assistant by
  first selecting "Try Ubuntu" at the first screen of the installer,
  then pressing alt-F2 and typing `ubiquity --no-migration-assistant` at
  the prompt that appears.

  Original report follows:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  ubiquity crashed at hardware configuration, most annoyingly this means
  that grub doesn't get installed properly and leaves you with an
  unbootable system.
