Title:
  ubiquity crashed with TypeError in __new__(): 'NoneType' object is not
  iterable

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  On a hp pavilion dv6 1230 I was using a usb wireless key to access an
  old ralink wireless G card isntead of the internal broadcom to try and
  not connect via ethernet and then download broadcom drivers later. I
  then got ubiquity to crash when not connected so I ran over to where I
  had an ethernet cable plugged in and lugged this in to report the bug.


  I expected to be able to connect via the one working wireless nic like
  I have done before on this laptop and install with network instead of
  ubiquity crashing.
