Also experiencing this problem with 04282011 AMD64 Desktop LiveCD.

Tracing the ubiquity process gives the following.

Process 17136 attached - interrupt to quit
restart_syscall(<... resuming interrupted call ...>) = 0
wait4(17140, 0x7fff10d558cc, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0

Which just repeats over and over and over.
