Vassilis, Found the problem. If you make / on a primary partition, then /var and /usr on their own separate, primary partitions the installer crashes -- if /var and /usr are on the same primary partition as / then it works fine; likewise, if you use extended partitions it also works fine. Not sure if this is really an important issue or not but figured I'd give you the details of my findings and let you decide.
