Hi pcr,
> The failures occur during "select and install", about a third of the way through, but not always at the same place.
definitely sounds strange, have you switched to debug output to see wether anything suspicious is there? (ctrl-alt-f4)

> My terabyte disk is partitioned with /boot of 1gB, / of 500 gB,  16 gB of swap, and the rest as /home, with about 200M not used.  I have 8 gB of ram. Ubuntu-gnome installs easily and functions correctly.

that's a bit odd - if you're not putting a ton of stuff in, say, /var, /home is usually what's growing biggest. But that should not bother an installation at all.

regards, Arian
