Title:
  Kubuntu automatic-ubiquity installer freezes with certain preseed file

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Kubuntu 13.10 amd64

  When attempting to perform an automatic installation in Kubuntu, if
  the following options are provided in the preseed file:

  d-i debian-installer/locale=en_US.UTF-8 
  d-i keyboard-configuration/layoutcode=us 
  d-i keyboard-configuration/variantcode=

  After the Kubuntu startup logo, the screen goes blank and nothing
  becomes responsive. If the options are not provided anywhere, the
  ubiquity installer dialog is presented and user is asked to provide
  the above information.
