[Bug 337965] [NEW] Partition Manager errors while installing Asus EEE series 900

[Manoj Iyer]

Public bug reported:

Installing Asus EEE 900 with Ubuntu Jaunty Alpha5 from USB disk.

- The installer get to the "Prepare disk Space". I picked the default "Use the entire disk" 
- It got to the "Installing System" screen and reported an error "Error informing the kernel about modifications to paritition /dev/sda2 -- Device or Resource busy (see attached screen shot for full message). 
- I clicked on *ignore* and it made some progress and reported another error, similar to the one above, about /dev/sda5.
- I clicked on *ignore* and it said "partitions formatting", at this point it was stuck on 5% for a long time, for filesystem /
- Then I got a message "Do you want to resume partitioning ?" The attempt to mount a filesystem with type swap in scsi2, parition #5 at none failed.
- I clicked on continue and it brought me back to Prepare disk space menu. 
- I clicked on forward.
- It showed me the 2 errors I saw previously but this time I clicked on *cancel* and the install made progress. 
- The installer then was able to install the machine, and reboot to login prompt with no problems.

Please find attached screen shots of the errors reported during install.
