Encountered this on Linux Mint. The installer fatally crashed without
even leaving the option to use the automatic reporting tool. Manually
doing rm -rf /target/usr/local/share/* allows the installer to
complete, because only removing the man directory makes the installer
create a symlink and it w

This problem affects Linux Mint, Kubuntu and Ubuntu. I have had the

There's further traffic on bug 573220 that I posted but can't properly

I had /usr/local symlinked to /local/usr/local (on a different disk from /).
I guess the installer had trouble because / is mounted as /target, and there is
no /local.

different partitioners to see if the bug is repeatable? I'm marking
this incomplete for now, because it seems like we need a little more

I know what you did, HughDaniel: You tried to partition your drive by
not only making their mount points high-level directories but also
mounting other partitions as their subdirectories (also known as tree-
partitioning). Ubiquity cannot handle this, and so the "OSError" will
result.

faced the problem of regularly crashing installation attempts, too. After some

OK now, there is no doubt now - in the manual partitioning mode, If
there is a (dead) symlink named 'opt' onte partition that is supposed to
be the root partition of the new installations, ubuquitty fails with the
errors in the last comment.
I remoded the link and installation went just fine.

I can confirm that this issue still exists in the Installer of Ubuntu 9.10 , on
an AMD64 system.
I tried to install on an already existing 9.10 installation, I used that
partition as the root partition for my
installation attempt.
Looks like it does not like the already existing /opt folder in th

I believe we fixed this in the final Ubuntu 9.10 release CDs. I would
greatly appreciate anyone who is still getting this error with the CDs
that will be released today to run `sudo apport-collect 188976` after
the installer crashes.
If this bug is fixed for you, please report back as well.

The workaround that got me through was simply to not specify the
offending partition during the install then to manually add it to
/etc/fstab once I'd finished.

The question if for me, did I really hit a bug that is so old (reported

Thanks to Tony Green and StealthBanana, had the same problem on

Duh, I should give you the set of partitions that caused todays failure.
This is a test system, so it's simple. One 250GB SATA drive, and in
todays case the install was off of USB key, but I have seen the same off
of CD-ROM.
Here are the partitions I made that caused it to fail:

This bug is in the golden Ubuntu 9.04, very bad.
I suspect the bug is related to having more then a few partitions, or partitions
where the installer did not expect them. This prevents using Ubuntu for
serious installs (servers, robust work stations, etc.).

I've tried several times and the installer crashes every time, leaving me with
