Title:
  cant install ubuntu 10.10 DVD

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  today i downloaded the ubuntu 10.10 through bittorrent, burn it to a dvd at 4x 
  i can run ubuntu off the cd just fine, but i am unable to install it so that it can run without the dvd in the ODD

  when installing it works for a while after i enter all the necessary
  information (eg. what time it is, name of the computer, my username
  and password etc..)

  the screen i can see tells me that the installer has crashed but it
  doesnt mention a specific error code

  this is not a "one off thing" this is my third attempt at installing
  this disk and my ninth attempt overall

  i also could not install ubuntu 10.10 amd64 for the same reason (but i
  think that had to do with my hardware not being as 64bit compatible as
  it claimed) and yes i am using an amd processor and socket

  attached i have the two files requested in the dialog box im looking
  at

  which are
  syslog
  partman
  and a screenshot detailing my hardware

  which were found at 
  /var/log/
  and using the sys info program in the ubuntu software center
