Title:
  Ubiquity is stuck after "Prepare" step

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am using the Kubuntu Beta 2 Live CD to install it on my Sony Vaio
  SVS13A190X laptop. It has one SSD with GPT partition and uses UEFI.

  After the prepare step, the installer hangs, presumably because of an
  inability to read some partitions, going by the syslog (attached).

  There is no indication of error, the installer is just stuck with the
  "Wait" mouse pointer spinning. I have used the Kubuntu 13.04 in the
  past to install successfully on this laptop.
