Had fatal problems installing 11.10. I cleared a 15GB space on my drive, a fresh Win7-64 system. Selected install option 1, automatic side by side ubuntu install, with update and 3rd party checked. I hit this bug, it is definitely not fixed, total showstopper. Installer created 7GB and 8GB partitions.

I then tried to delete these partitions and start over, with update and 3rd party unchecked. I should have used bootit to delete the partitions so I know they were cleared, but I used the partition tool in the ubuntu installer. Ubuntu showed 15GB freespace however. I then ran the install option 3 advanced. I highlighted the 15GB freespace and continued. Popup warn on too small partitions, and I went back and the 2 partitions were there again. Deleted again -- I tried option 3 again, same popup warn, continued anyway, installer crashed.
Win7-64 partitions were not damaged so that's good.
