crashed in live CD Kubuntu 64 install manual layout

Binary package hint: ubiquity

Previous try worked, changes from that one:

Memory from 4GB to 8GB (tested with memtest)

8MB /boot and ~ 16GB /, previously was all one / partition

In the manual layout, I forgot to tell it again of the swap partitions, although I don't know if it didn't pick that up from the last install.

Also, when I started the installer, Kubuntu wasn't fully started (or so I assume from the bouncing mouse cursor), but it was by the time I did anything with it, and well before I fired off the install, after which ubiquity crashed.

Same thing happened the second time I did it from a fresh live CD boot, this time I waited until cursor was quiet, and made sure the installer knew it was using the two 16GB swap partitions.

Will create this bug now so that I can attach the second report to it.

Will try larger /boot next.

Not serious for me (yet), I'm just exploring before I install for real, and I'm following this unusual path because I've been installing versions of *nix since 2.nBSD on a PDP-11/44 in 1981, so I'm more ambitious than the normal user (e.g. this will eventually be a LVM RAID-1 install).
