Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubiquity

executed on a live system `ubiquity -g --only` to install ubuntu on new
drive.

choose install. selected NO to unmount active /dev/sda2.
choose manual partition. partitioned /dev/sdb to be used.
the installer reformats /dev/sda1 as swap again, hopefully it was not being 
used at all.
i select time zone, keyboard, and then it fails. with a message to open a new 
bug.

The keyboard window is still visible.

Here's the end of my syslog:
