Hi, Thanks for the report. :)

We just need to know a bit more info, maybe when abouts during the installation the installer crashed?

Hi, it crashed while installing files, after asking me about time and a
couple of minutes of copying.
ps: sorry for my English.

I'm afraid that there is nothing I can do about this without the requested log files. If you (the original reporter) can reproduce this bug with a current release and can get me the log files, feel free to reopen this bug. (Anyone else reading this who believes they have a similar problem should open a new bug instead.)

With any luck, this is one of the several classes of bugs fixed in Kubuntu 6.06.1.
