It's mounting the partitions to determine what operating system is on
them, so it can generate the human readable names in the grub menu, like
"Windows XP Professional" and "Ubuntu 7.04".  I imagine this is a bug in
os-prober or grub-installer, but I'll need log files from a failing
install attempt to be sure.  Can you please run the install again in
debug mode (`ubiquity --debug` from a terminal) and attach
/var/log/syslog, /var/log/installer/debug, and the output of `ps auxf`
to this bug report when it starts to hang?
