[Bug 964331] Re: Ubiquity chooses which drive to install to with no user input

[Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre]

There's clearly something odd happening then, because I am unable to
reproduce this on various hardware; installing from USB as I normally
do.

How are the drives partitioned to begin with? I wonder if something is
keeping grub from using the hard-drive on which it installed (as one
certainly rightfully would expect it to).

Title:
  Ubiquity chooses which drive to install to with no user input

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I was testing Precise beta 2 live ISO, using the "Install Ubuntu
  alongside" option.

  I have two internals drives, and both of them have other systems on
  them.

  Ubiquity didn't ask me to choose which drive. I got a message to the
  effect that it was installing to /dev/sdb but NO "Are you sure?" It
  just went ahead and started installing. The only way to stop that
  seems to be to reboot.

  I would expect the user to be able to check that everything is OK
  before proceeding.
