FWIW, when I let ubiquity take me to a 'live' DE after the above failure, I tried installing from within the live DE again checking the 2 update/addcodcs boxes. On reboot I did the [code]sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install aptitude && sudo aptitude safe-upgrade[/code]
However, the Ambiance theme was broken and my gtk themes were not accepting changes (via Control-Center>Appearances).
Tried a reinstall, again checking the 2 updates/add codecs boxes - failed again; at the live DE tried without the 2 boxes checked but again got broken gtk themes. Note both times from the failed Ubuity installer I opted to delete and reformat the partition /dev/sdc3 as ext4 mount point as /
The last time, I ran the install CD with the updates/add codecs boxes unchecked, ran the aptitude safe-upgrade, added restricted drivers etc and all was fine.
Haven't messed with xfs since circa 2001 on a mandrake-x.y install that completely trashed my U320 SCSI drives, curious as to why xfsprogs is being pulled in considering Ubuntu's target audience.
