Title:
  ubiquity issue with unattended installation

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  Lucid & preseed installation (ubiquity) question ....

  Hi folks,

  I am creating live/installable Lucid ISO image. I provided the
  installation with pre-seed file to make automatic installation.

  I see 2 things and the process stops:

  
  1) In the "Installing System" pop-up window with "Verifying Installation Configuration" text ...==> the percentage went up to 380% ....

  2) The automatic installation stops at "Install" pop-up window. ...
  "Ready To Install" ... with "Your new operating system information
  will now be installed with the following settings" ... and the
  information populated properly with information provided in the pre-
  seed file.

  The "Install" pop-up window is at : Step 1 of 7 and only buttons
  "Quit" and "Advanced ..." are enabled ....===> can not continue the
  installation process (even manually ) ...

  
  Is this a ubiquity bug or something wrong with my pre-seed file ?

  Any help/suggestion is greatly appreciated ...

  Thanks in advance ...
