Title:
  ubiquity failed

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  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.

  Here's the end of my syslog:
