[Bug 1799097] Re: Install selected time zone city (Seattle) hit next hit back hit next then crash

[Iain Lane]

I can see two ways to fix this, both of which have some small downsides:

  https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
installer/ubiquity/+git/ubiquity/+merge/357618

Fixes this bug because you can't run the timezone step a second time.
Obvious downside is that if you make a mistake at that step you can't
correct it.

  https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
installer/ubiquity/+git/ubiquity/+merge/357619

Fixes this bug because we only start the actual installation once.
Downside is that this would suffer from bug #1797579 for the non-first
choice.

If another installer developer could weigh in that would be helpful.
