It seems very difficult to change the behaviour of the GtkTreeView
widget in this regard. It's in the gtk+2.0 source package if you want to
pursue anything there.
However, I think keyboard navigation within this tree is going to be
pretty strange almost whatever we do, so I have a (possibly)
Fix committed as described in my previous comment. Hopefully this will
make things easier for people, even if it isn't perfect.

This will do the trick for now, and I will file a bug for GTK+ with
regards to the GtkTreeView problem. Thank you for the fix, Colin!

This is already possible. Tab to the TreeView, then use the arrow keys
to move from one column to the next. Press spacebar or enter when the
format box is selected.
Granted, the outline of the selected part of the row is hard to make
out, but that's not a bug in the installer.

Thanks for your clearing that up! I don't think it's too intuitive
though. Not saying Tab is intuitive, but if someone has been using
graphical interfaces since some time, it's the first thing that comes to
mind when navigating without a mouse. If it's not possible to add
tabbing support for that
Seems like this should be easy and valuable; targetting to hardy.

Thanks for your quick response. If Hardy Alpha 5 behaves the same way,
then I will mark as Confirmed to move along. I agree, it should behave
the same way, but other than a fancy python script, I'm not sure how
ubiquity handles the graphical interface.

Checked today, there's still no tab stop for the Format checkbox. If
there's no way to make it selectable, it should probably at least be
added to the dialog that pops up when you double-click a partition.

Yes, I see the irony of the double-clickable partition on a can't-reach-
with-keyboard bug. ;) To be fair there's a button to bring that dialog
up, and on most keyboards, the Menu key.

Triage to Incomplete pending more information. What version of Ubuntu?
Can you post /var/log/syslog?

How I could miss a piece of information so essential, I have no idea. I
posted this while I was installing 7.10 final on a desktop. I was
referring to the Format checkbox not being reachable by pressing Tab,
like every other widget in the installer. (text entries, buttons etc.)
Will check tomorrow
