Hello Lance and thanks for your reply.

I have failed to find any connection or any similarity between my issue
which is explained here:
amjjawad.blogspot.com/2013/04/testing-lubuntu-1304-report-1.html

and the bug that you mentioned:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1080701

Which is saying: "After 'Preparing to install Ubuntu' screen, raring
installation hangs"

and:
Test steps:
1. Boot the machine with usb
2. Enter the wireless password to enable the wifi connection
3. Wait to hear the drums and select 'Install Ubuntu' with English being
the language selection
4. Click 'Continue' with the default selections on the 'Preparing to
install ubuntu' screen( where it shows the power, available disk space and
internet connectivity statu)
5. The installation does not proceed from this point

This has *nothing *to do with my issue here:
amjjawad.blogspot.com/2013/04/testing-lubuntu-1304-report-1.html
You can go back to my first email below to re-check :D

Again, in my case, the installation of raring-desktop-i386 (AKA Lubuntu
13.04 Beta 2 desktop version) installed from USB created by MultiBootUSB
was actually done *successfully *:D

1- Machine rebooted after a successfully installation process (not even a
single error during the installation)
2- USB Removed
3- Booted to my main OS
4- sudo update-grub
5- Rebooted
6- After selecting Lubutnu 13.04 from the GRUB menu
7- http://i49.tinypic.com/2wmoubl.jpg

So again, I don't know how that bug has anything to do with my case?

Thanks :)
