[Bug 1447256] Re: "Force UEFI" dialog displayed if user selects custom partitioning

[Simos Xenitellis]

The installer is stuck at this dialog box. Neither button (Go Back or Continue) work.
The user is unable to complete the installation (and has to either reboot or kill ubiquity before trying again).

  vivid desktop amd64 20150422

  During installation on a blank disk on a UEFI system, if the user
  creates a custom partition, the installer displays the 'Force UEFI'
  dialog (screenshot) while there is no pre-installed system. This
  dialog is not displayed if the custom partitioner is not used.
