Problem on installation

[satimis]

Hi folks,

Ubuntu 10.04 amd64 built on April. 26, 2010 (mini.iso)
Gnome desktop

During installation following warning popup

An installation step failed. You can try to run the failing item again
from the menu, or skip it and choose something else. The failing step is:
Select and install software


Repeating above step can't solve problem, still popup above warning.

Items selected;

Print server
Virtual Machine host
Ubuntu desktop



Then I de-selected;
Print server
Virtual Machine host


Installation went through. Ubuntu 10.04 started finally.

I need "Print server" and "Virtual Machine host" please advise which software I need to add?
