When I chose Manual installation(In Edubuntu 11.04 the option was 'something else'), I new my earlier Edubuntu installation was on sda7 and 8 so I deleted those partitions and added, swap(twice the memory size) and '/' root to the tables. Pretty routine stuff for partitioning that's all. I will try and install Edubuntu 11.04 again and see if the problem persists......

I haven't come across that yet, could you perhaps share what you chose at the manual partitioning step? I doubt it was anything that you missed so I'd like to try to reproduce the problem so that we could look in to it. If that can't be made to work it might be best to try the Ubuntu alternate cd for installation (it uses another installer) and then install the education bundles separately. If you could send the files in /var/log/installer and the /var/log/syslog file on that machine when it takes so long, that could also be incredibly useful in debugging the problem. It will probably be best to attach those files to a bug report on <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://bugs.launchpad.net">http://bugs.launchpad.net</a>.
