[Bug 964331] Re: Ubiquity chooses which drive to install to with no user input

[Colin Watson]

I would like to redesign this for Q, since it's come up several times as
a problem.  However, it's been this way for a few releases, and we
aren't going to be able to do anything about it for 12.04 at this point.

Title:
  Ubiquity chooses which drive to install to with no user input

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I was testing Precise beta 2 live ISO, using the "Install Ubuntu
  alongside" option.

  I have two internals drives, and both of them have other systems on
  them.

  Ubiquity didn't ask me to choose which drive. I got a message to the
  effect that it was installing to /dev/sdb but NO "Are you sure?" It
  just went ahead and started installing. The only way to stop that
  seems to be to reboot.

  I would expect the user to be able to check that everything is OK
  before proceeding.
