I can't start Parted when I boot the 10.04 Desktop 32-bit CD.

When I click it on the menu, parted (the full-size window with title,
though I can't see the contents in that split second) disappears a
fraction of a second after it appears.  If I then try to sudo parted
from the Terminal, it presents this error rather than starting.

How can I install if I can't partition?
