[Bug 1789920] Re: Installation in OEM mode broken on bionic

[Michael Hudson-Doyle]

So I think this patch (to ubiquity):

(master)mwhudson at ringil:/opt/opensource/ubiquity$ git diff
diff --git a/finish-install.d/01oem-config-udeb b/finish-install.d/01oem-config-udeb
index afb94f4b3..16940ff2b 100755

+# Disable ubiquity.service in the installed system as it conflicts with
+# getty at tty1.service which we want to run.
+chroot /target systemctl mask ubiquity.service

will fix the issue, it's a bit gross though.

Title:
  Installation in OEM mode broken on bionic

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in ubiquity source package in Bionic:
  New

Bug description:
  I have downloaded the 18.04.1 iso with alternative (legacy) installer.

  I took the following steps:
  1. Booted from the ISO (using BIOS, haven't tested EFI).
  2. F4 -> set the OEM mode.
  3. Proceed through the initial setup.
  4. Agree to reboot for the OEM setup.
  5. Observe systemd boot messages.

  Expected result:
  User is offered a login prompt to login as oem user.

  Actual result:
  Boot is stuck without any error/explanation.
