[Bug 1425732] Re: Network installer (and mini ISO) won't allow to preseed the keyboard layout

[Nuwanda]

** Description changed:

  What:
  
- When using the metwork installer (from http://www.ubuntu.com/download
- /alternative-downloads), it is not possible to preseed the keyboard
- layout.
+ It is not possible to preseed the keyboard layout, when auto-
+ install/enable is not preseeded in the boot parameters.
  
+ Preseeding the keyboard layout will keep the questions from appearing,
+ but the layout will stay us.
  
  Where:
  
  The bug is present in 14.04 and 14.10,
- when using the network installer or the mini-ISO.
- 
+ but not in 13.10.
  
  Additional information:
  
  The keyboard layout was preseeded using:
  d-i keyboard-configuration/layoutcode string de
  d-i keyboard-configuration/variantcode string nodeadkeys
  
- The preseed works as desired when using the regular iso.
- 
  The preseeded values are read correctly.
  (checked using debconf-get-selections --installer | grep keyboard-configuration)
  
  The keyboardlayout is us both during and after installation.

** Summary changed:

- Network installer (and mini ISO) won't allow to preseed the keyboard layout
+ Keyboard layout cannot be preseeded when auto-install is not set
