Hello. Thanks for filing a bug. Could you please attach /var/log/syslog and /var/log/partman to this bug? That would help us better identify the cause of the problem. It looks like you'e run out of disk space. The installer should not allow that, at least not with the automatic partitioning. Did you use manual or automatic partitioning?
