Fix appears to work for me. Ubiquity 1.11.20 from the 9.04 beta would crash on "Detecting Hardware" causing the X server to restart. Booted beta live CD, performed apt-get upgrade on ubiquity to version 1.12.5 and everything worked OK. Thanks for the update! -- installation fails leaving PC unb

I've committed what I think is likely to be a fix for this, for the upcoming ubiquity 1.12.0. Since I can't reproduce this myself, I'd appreciate it if you could try a daily build in a few days' time and tell us whether it still breaks; if it does, please reopen this bug. ** Changed in: ubiquity (

Update: I just tried installing the AMD64 version of Kubuntu (which had installed fine on a Socket AM2 PC just beforehand) and it also froze at the 90% Detecting Hardware part of installation. Is there a problem with ubiquity & Socket 754 motherbaords (with VIA chipset)? -- installation fails l

The problem appears to happen at the 90% Hardware detection stage. With the video card removed and using the onboard VIA video, X froze & the cursor would not respond. With a different video card (AGP SIS XABRE), X restarted a few seconds after hardware detection started. Rebooting gave GRUB erro
