Bug Description

during the installation of ubuntu 6.06,
I configured the partitioner manually asking for a last secondary partition which was supposed to include two logical partions:
- the 1st one of type ext3 to mount /home on it
- the 2nd one of type ntfs (to share with windows)

A couple of times I tried to proceed and the installation got to a point where everything was stalled (no reaction at all, no window drag), so I rebooted.
One time (imposing the same disk configuration) the system crashed during installation, and the logs are reported below.

I think the problem regarded the ntfs logic partition withing a secondary partition, since after I removed it from the partitioner configuration the installation ended finely.

What hardware was this on? Motherboard in particular. Several Asus boards (including mine!) had this issue in 6.06
