Public bug reported:

This is a usability bug where the user is given incorrect feedback from
the installer, potentially resulting in the user canceling the
installation for fear of erasing data on the wrong drive.

When installing Ubuntu 14.10 (ubuntu-14.10-desktop-amd64.iso) and
selecting "Erase disk and install Ubuntu" together with "Encrypt the new
Ubuntu installation for security", the next page will ask the user to
choose a security key. On this page, the next button will say "Install
Now" instead of "Continue", despite not being the final page. Clicking
"Install Now" correctly sends the user to the "select disk" page.
