I just tested both (x86 & amd64) of the lubuntu-alt iso's again today and they both failed in the same place in the same way. The only difference that I see is that in the last line of the screenshot attached above it says:

partman-crypto: kernel entropy_avail: 447 bits

In todays tests the last line ends with 410 bits on the amd64 VM, and 674 bits in the x86 VM.

I am running these tests in Vbox VM's that have 2G RAM and 20G HDD's

I have also noticed that if I try to finish the install amd64 VM loops me back to here: http://postimg.org/image/eq5vqpn0l/
and x86 VM loops me back to here: http://postimg.org/image/nz820tvwl/

alt-f4 produces:

Looks like https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=757417 and https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=757750, which should all be fixed now in Ubuntu. Please reopen this bug if you still see problems starting from tomorrow's daily build.
