Title:
  OEM Install does not seem to like user to be named "oem" again

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: oem-config

  After oem-config-prepare, if you create a user named "oem" again, the
  user would not be created properly (no entry in /etc/passwd) and you
  would not be able to login as so. Furthermore, oem-id does not get
  generated under /var/log/installer, either.

  Steps to re-produce the bug:
  1. F4 to select OEM install mode
  2. Click on the shortcut to oem-config-prepare on the desktop
  3. Create a user named oem
  4. Login fails with the newly created user oem
  5. Check the /etc/passwd, no entry on oem could be found
  6. Check /var/log/installer, no oem-id could be found
