What partitioning option did you select? Could you please try to
reproduce this in debug mode (ubiquity -d) and attach new logs?

Thanks!

I get this on i386 and amd64 desktop ISOs. Installing from USB and CD.
alternate CDs are not affected.

However bambee has reported two successful amd64 desktop installs.

[Jonathan Riddell]

I'm doing "use full disk" partition option

[Romain Perier]

I also installed on i386 but using a virtual machine (virtualbox with "use full disk"). It works just fine here.
Can I provide additionnal informations ?

[Brendan Donegan]

This only happens if you don't have a connection as far as I can see.

[Kate Stewart]

Cleaning up the status of this, after discussion with Riddell.

It gets stuck for me both with and without internet connection on real
hardware.

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

I can't reproduce it here with Kubuntu AMD64 and the Ubiquity based installer.
The logs doesn't contains the lines mentioned above.

[Jonathan Riddell]

In comment #10 jibel is using a virtual machine

[Jonathan Riddell]

Happens on DVD live install too

[Martin Pitt]

I did an i386 install (alpha-3 candidates) on my Dell Mini 10 from usb-
creator generated USB stick, with English, no network, and "use entire
disk". Worked fine, and no "Media" in syslog.

[Martin Pitt]

Apparently python-apt has this "Media change" string, in
AcquireProgress.media_change().

ln -s /cdrom /media/cdrom before running ubiquity fixes this, as
discussed on IRC

Jonathan confirms that this is also due to the changed /cdrom ->
/media/cdrom mount point, duplicating.
