[Bug 1080701] Re: After 'Preparing to install Ubuntu' screen, raring installation hangs

[moma]

I got the same error when installing 13.04 beta1 (and all alphas before
this).

I have a rather complex set of partitions. The installation hangs
indefinitely at the "Preparing for installation" window.

$ sudo fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 250.1 GB, 250059350016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders, total 488397168 sectors

This command fixed this error and allowed me to continue the installation.
 $ sudo rm -rf /lib/partman/automatically_partition/15reuse/ /lib/partman/automatically_partition/25replace/
