I am trying to install edgy on a presario v3000t with the following stats
centrino duo processor
1gb ram
60 gb sata hd
Traceback:

This particular bug is one that I've been having some difficulty tracking down, and I'd appreciate your help. Could you please boot the same CD afresh and run the following command in a terminal (Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal; make sure to type this exactly as printed):
sudo env UBIQUITY_DEBUG=1 ubiquity >/tmp/ubiquity.log 2>&1
Now run through the installer as normal, except make sure to use a dummy password such as "password", as the password will show up in the debugging log and you shouldn't expose your real password that way. Assuming you encounter the same problem, please start a web browser directly on the live CD, go to this bug report, and attach the files "/tmp/ubiquity.log" and "/var/log/syslog".
Thanks in advance!
