Title:
  Ubiquity stuck at Preparing to install if no clean drive available

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On validating step 2 Ubiquity hangs. Possibly there is a problem with
  how Gparted works here.

  If some partitions are mounted there is the usual prompt to unmount
  though (Y,N = same result)

  Since I had no issue with the same install procedure on a netbook
  without swap partition I tried to swapoff all drives: no change.

  Seeing http://askubuntu.com/questions/204771/ubuntu-12-10
  -installation-hangs-at-preparing-to-install-ubuntu didn't help:
  formatting one partition was useless (and I had succeeded with my
  netbook which had no clean partitions)

  Similar to bug #727917
