I confirm that this works as well.....
i.e. disable updates/Internet during installation achieves a successful install.

I also vaguely remember this happening before to other early builds
on other Ubuntu releases !?

Carlos - the trick is to refuse the offer to download and install
updates - the installation should then proceed to completion. After you
re-start, you can update/upgrade without any trouble.

Good luck!
