Bug description:
  ubiquity 2.9.28 [modified:
  lib/partman/automatically_partition/question], Ubuntu 12.04 beta

  Currently the 'prepare' step does network detection and propose an
  option to download updates from the network. But it the system uses a
  wireless card and is not connected, the wifi setup is the next step
  forcing to go back run 'prepare' again and select the download option.

  having 'wifi' before 'prepare' would make more sense.

  <http://goo.gl/0lNf4>: "If you chose 'Install Ubuntu' and the computer
  is not connected to the Internet, the next step should be 'Connect to
  the Internet' ... If any [wi-fi cards] are turned on but all of those
  require a driver that isn’t currently installed, [it should include]
  the text 'To use wi-fi on this computer, Ubuntu needs to install
  proprietary wi-fi driver software.', and an 'Install Driver Now'
  button, that — if you click it — changes to the text 'Installing…' and
  a progress bar."
