  through the test:

  Dec  6 04:18:55 debconf: --> INPUT medium debian-installer/main-menu
  Dec  6 04:18:55 debconf: <-- 30 question skipped

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Get latest ISO from: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/pending/

  2. Pull out the kernel and initrd
  $ mkdir iso
  $ bsdtar xfp bionic-server-amd64.iso -C iso
  $ cp iso/install/vmlinuz .
  $ cp iso/install/initrd.gz .

  3. Create QEMU disk
  $ qemu-img create -f qcow2 vdisk.img 4G

  4. Launch ISO via QEMU
  $ qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -cpu host -m 1024 -boot d \
      -initrd initrd.gz -kernel vmlinuz -display none -nographic \
      -hda vdisk.img -cdrom bionic-server-amd64.iso \
      -append 'console=ttyS0 locale=en_US.UTF-8 priority=critical'

  5. Proceed with the install by 1) enter user info and 2) select disk

  6. Eventually the "Ubuntu installer main menu" will appear. Even if
  you click on "Install the system" the installation step will fail.
