[Chris Guiver]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. Please execute the following command only once, as it
will automatically gather debugging information, in a terminal:

apport-collect 1995347

When reporting bugs in the future please use apport by using 'ubuntu-
bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more about this
functionality at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs.

Bug reporting is mostly about finding & fixing problems thus preventing
future users from hitting the same bug.

I suspect a Support site would be more appropriate, eg.
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu. You can also find help with your
problem in the support forum of your local Ubuntu community
http://loco.ubuntu.com/ or asking at https://askubuntu.com or
https://ubuntuforums.org, or for more support options please look at

Title:
  Autoinstall is stuck with ubuntu-22.10-desktop-amd64.iso

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Problem:
  Autoinstall stop on the phase "Updates and other software" as attached screenshot shows with ubuntu-22.10-desktop-amd64.iso.
  After click "Continue" button, the autoinstall will go on and finish the unattended installtion

  
  Details:
  I modify the files /preseed/ubuntu.seed and /boot/grub/grub.cfg inside ubuntu-22.10-desktop-amd64.iso for the unattended install.

  With the modified ISO, the autoinstall begins but stop on the phase "Updates and other software" as attached screenshot shows.
  After click "Continue" button, the autoinstall can go on and finish the unattended installation.

  
  Content of /preseed/ubuntu.seed:
  ### step 1 : Localization

  ubiquity languagechooser/language-name select English (US)
  ubiquity countrychooser/shortlist select US

  Note:
  with the same file /preseed/ubuntu.seed, autoinstall can works well with ubuntu-18.04-desktop-amd64.iso.
  But it stop on "Step 3" with ubuntu-22.10-desktop-amd64.iso/ubuntu-20.04.5-desktop-amd64.iso


  Not sure it's the issue about /preseed/ubuntu.seed or ubiquity installer. 
  Would someone help me with it ?  Thanks
