Comment 36 for bug 703009

I am having the same problem. There seems to be no possibility to successfully run the ubuntu installer. It always ends up with a critical error: 'cannot stat aufs'. I can not even run the grub-install afterwards and let the installer skip this step because there is no option for this.

I don't know how to install the distribution without the installer.

It's very sad that this bug is known for nine month and nothing happens. This one is critical and kept people from trying ubuntu.
