I also can confirm this. I'm getting an error during the installation process. For some mysterious reason clicking "cancel" seems to do the same as "ignore".

I have no idea what's going on; we probably should forward it upstream.

Screw it, use Oneiric.

It looks like Ubiquity and/or kernel bug and I can do nothing about it. We're switching to Oneiric ASAP, so I won't put any effort in fixing this and strongly recommend not to waste your time on this.
If you want to get the current dailies installed, you can install Natty and transform it into elementary OS using https://code.launchpad.net/~elementaryos/elementaryos/eBuild

Reopen this bug if it occurs with Oneiric beta 1 as base.
