** Description changed:

- Experimenting with an oem install, after the user setup and the
- installation is complete there is a /target/var/log/installer/telemetry
- file.  This file location seems to be hard coded into ubiquity, but
- there is no /target at the oem user setup stage.
+ [Impact]
+ 
+  * Telemetry data were leaving a telemetry file while the second stage
+ OEM installer (the user setup) was ran. This telemetry file was creating
+ thus a /target directory on the root FHS.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  * Start an 18.04 live session and install ubiquity in OEM mode
+  * Start ubiquity
+  * Complete the installation and close ubiquity without rebooting the 
+ session
+   
+  * Reboot, check /var/log/installer/telemetry and mark the machine as ready
+  * Reboot with the user creation and config step, and proceed through it with 
relogin with the new created user
+  * Check that there is no /target directory and that 
/var/log/installer/telemetry is still the same.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+  * The impact is minimal, we check for and env variable before bailing
+ out from recording the file. That will make room for the future to
+ easily merge those second stage data with the installer (OEM) ones.
