Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Kubuntu Knot2 Desktop CD on desktop PC (i386) with 120 GB HDD with two NTFS partitions and old Edgy install (/ and /home ext3 and swap).
When I came to Step 5 (disk partitioning), ubiquity was doing something for a long time (1-2 min) with only busy mouse pointer. After that, I got dialog with "The resize operation is impossible" error. I have confirmed the error and then selected "Manually edit partition table", but this has also caused busy mouse pointer and repeated the error.
I suspect I have hit the problem mentioned in announcement:
* The desktop CD installer may be unable to start the advanced
partitioner in some situations when there are errors on
filesystems on the hard disk.
