Missing a "Install Ubuntu XX.XX along with Mac" option

[John Kim]

ubuntu 12.10 daily build. It was missing the "Install ... along with Mac" option.
ubiquity 2.11.19

Expected:
the option should be present.

Actual:
The option wasn't present.

Regression:
It was allowed before.

NOTES:
There were only two options: "something else" or "delete Mac and install Ubuntu."

What architecture are you using? x86, amd64 or powerpc?
What Mac is it? Model/version.
Did you use amd64+mac cd for recent EFI / Intel Macs?

[John Kim (kotux)]

amd64
MacBookPro6,1
Yes.

John, when you say it was allowed before, when did this last work to your knowledge? (confirming would be even better). I suspect it's because lack of write support for HFS+ with journaling.. perhaps not. gparted I think can resize this partition.

The last working example was ubuntu 12.04 stable.

Oh, actually the "install ubuntu" screen for 12.10 never worked before. I
was referring "before" to the precise release. Sorry about not being
specific.
