Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Ubiquity will do nothing when you click forward on the second screen
(the screen where it checks if you have a power supply, internet
connection, etc) if you have an unformatted partition. It gives no error
but just sits there, forever.
To reproduce:
Make a partition on your hard drive that is unformatted (has no filesystem).
The one I had was a logical partition, but I doubt that matters.
Start ubiquity and try to do a normal install. You will get stuck on the page
where it checks to see if you have an Internet connection, etc. Specifically,
if you press forward, nothing happens, and the cursor looks busy.
Close Ubiquity.
Format the unformatted partition.
Open Ubiquity and try to get past where you were stuck before.
