Hi,
I have just downloaded the openmamba ISO for the first time (never used this OS before now) and I booted the live ISO in a virtual machine (run using VirtualBox 5.0.2), the booting happened with issue, but when I ran the installer, Calamares, I noticed several bugs. For one, when I tried to select my language there was a graphical bug that meant that where the Calamares window and the language drop-down menu intersected the menu was made invisible (see this screenshot, for example). Secondly and most significantly, when I got to the stage of pressing "Install Now" in the popup window (see this screenshot, if you are unsure about what I mean), Calamares crashed. Now, so that I can provide you's with detailed debugging information, I ran sudo calamares from Konsole and it gave the following output:

Now the reason why I said "may be related to KDE" in the title is that I know that Calamares also has issues (not quite the same, but still related to graphics) in Sabayon KDE edition, see this post on the Sabayon forums for details.

Thanks for reporting the problems with details to help us fix them.
Calamares was recently updated in openmamba but I could not do extensive tests so far.
About the most importat problem, did you choose automatic partitioning of the whole disk? This is a function I have patched for openmamba and which needs more testing, because I suspect wrongly calculated partitions might cause the crash. So if this is the case I would suggest you to try with manual partitiong and see if it works, as I haven't patched anything there.

I was using automatic partitioning, but I just tried manual (MBR, single 256 GB ext2 partition, if relevant) partitioning and it resulted in the same crash.

Hi,
I've just tried installing openmamba-milestone3-livecd-it-snapshot-20150908 on both libvirt and VirtualBox virtual machines and could not repoduce the problem.
In your log, for some yet unknown reason, device are not gathered after repartitioning and the QHash returned is empty:
13:22:15 [1]: Gathering UUIDs for partitions that exist now.
13:22:15 [1]: QHash(("", "")) as a workaround, did you try installing on a partition that already exist, i.e. without telling Calamares to change any partition?
