Title:
  Ubuntu on-disk installer.

Status in Ubuntu CD image build software:
  New
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This is a feature request.

  Current Ubuntu desktop image has different modes when pressing F4.

  1. Normal
  2. Use driver update disc
  3. OEM install (for manufacturers)

  Could we add a new mode called "Ubuntu on-disk installer" or other
  wording?

  The difference between "Ubuntu on-disk installer" and "OEM install (for manufacturers)" is that "Ubuntu on-disk installer" will transfer Ubuntu desktop image and install it to the first partition by default (can be preseeded with other value).
  And "Ubuntu on-disk installer" will install a little application to make the end users able to trigger "Ubuntu on-disk installer" from their desktop environment to reinstall and overwrite the existing Ubuntu system without Ubuntu desktop image.
