When you hit this problem, does pressing the escape button return the UI to sanity?
I have seen suggestions about this, but it never worked for me.
I think we have this fixed by a combination of factors: (1) Disabling the lightboxes in custom partitioning. (2) Fixing a locking problem with yum that would show up regardless of where you were in the installer. (3) Some better use of decorators to mark methods that can be run in the GTK main loop.
