i click on ignore, the installation go on for some minutes,then the crash of ubiquity:

Can you please verify that the MD5 checksum of the CD you downloaded matches the version on the website, following the instructions at <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM>.

Feb 25 20:12:46 ubuntu ubiquity: cp:
Feb 25 20:12:46 ubuntu ubiquity: cannot stat `/etc/default/console-setup'
Feb 25 20:12:46 ubuntu ubiquity: : No such file or directory

Is /etc/default/console-setup present when booted into the "Try or Install Ubuntu" option?

Thanks!

I also run in that problem, it happens for example if you choose "Deutsch" as installer language.

If I use "English" as language and then "Europe" as timezone region, I can choose a keyboard layout DE with variant de ... otherwise it seems to try to get layout DE without any variant.

So confimring the crash.

ZhengPeng Hou,

Please do not mark installer bugs as duplicates unless you are absolutely certain they are the same bug. Having the same error message does not necessarily mean that two bugs are the same.

Thanks

I have same problem if I choose installation language in Russian, then I see the following message (see snapshot).
If I press "Ignore" button, then closer to the end of the installation I see error "traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/bin/ubiquity", line 462, in <module>
     main(oem_config)"

.... etc....

P.S. I try to install from USB flash drive, Lucid Beta
