I did some more investigation on this bug. In the minimal example the
logo and labels are painted, but the z-order is wrong such that the
dotted pattern wipes them. Strangely enough the "use_disk" mode (when
multiple disks are present), shows the logo & that the titles correctly.

Title:
  No partition labels in 12.04 partition wizard

Bug description:
  I clicked through the 12.04 LTS Beta 1 installation wizard and
  selected "Install 12.04 LTS alongside 11.10". I am presented with a
  simple slider to manage the partitions for the existing and new
  version of Ubuntu. However, the only labels present on the partitions
  are the sizes (approx 240GB and 60GB). Which one is for 12.04 and
  which for 11.10?

  I would suggest adding labels either for the partition names
  ("/dev/sda1", "/dev/sda2") or (preferably) for the OS that is/is going
  to be installed on the partition ("Ubuntu 11.10", "Ubuntu 12.04"). The
  latter would obviously be preferred because I wouldn't neccesarily
  know what the former means. (btw, I'm assuming my existing
  installation would stay on the existing partition, /dev/sda1?)

  At the moment I can't continue past this step knowing what is going to
  happen, which means I don't really want to! :)

  I will add a screenshot asap.
