Public bug reported:

13.04 Beta1  UbuntuStudio

on a laptop that is not plugged in to the power:

Run the Installer

When you get to the "Preparing to Install..." screen

[x]  Is plugged in to a power source

click [Continue]

Result: partman hangs

Expected:  These are reccommendations not requirements....  my laptop battery is good for at least 3 hours, which is more than enough time for an install.   In any case, partman should not hang.
