A couple of things that really help when filing bug reports. 

If you can get the installation to complete, you can use 
ubuntu-bug ubiquity
in a terminal to file a bug.

When "ubuntu-bug ubiquity" will not send the bug report in, the
developers normally need the log files from /var/log/installer attached 
to the bug report. 

A template I use to make sure I include needed information in all my
reports is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Bug-Report-Layout . This
reminds me to include the date of the ISO image, the release, and the
rest of the needed information.
