Can you do anything e.g Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to a terminal.
Code:
tail /var/log/syslog
See if anything stands out.
Zip up the log files in C:\ubuntu (assuming C: drive) to attach to a bug report:
Code:
sudo zip -r /host/ubuntu/failedinstalllogs.zip /var/log
Or is it totally frozen?
PS Ctrl+Alt+F7 gets back to the GUI. From the GUI there might be a More Details button (or an expansion arror) you can click and a SKIP button that appears as well.
Just curious if that will show what the problem might be. If you're connected to the internet (ethernet) then try without doing that. Don't hook up the wireless either. It's not necessary.
