Bug description:
  With 14.04, I've found that oem-config no longer prompts end users for
  their final configuration details.  In fact, the system reboots
  abruptly and no longer has the oem user account.

  From the contents of /var/log/oem-config.log (below), it appears that
  oem-config is throwing an unhandled exception, exceeding its maximum
  retries (5), and then purging itself from the system.  I've reproduced
  this with a fresh 14.04 OEM install.

  This is definitely a regression from the 12.04 release.
