Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ubiquity
executed on a live system `ubiquity -g --only` to install ubuntu on new drive. choose install. selected NO to unmount active /dev/sda2. choose manual partition. partitioned /dev/sdb to be used. the installer reformats /dev/sda1 as swap again, hopefully it was not being used at all. i select time zone, keyboard, and then it fails. with a message to open a new bug. The keyboard window is still visible.
