Bug Description
I tried to install Ubuntu 20.04.2 from the ISO image "ubuntu-
For this I used the "Load from ISO image" panel on the HMC with the
"/ubuntu.ins" file. I then used the manual network config dialog
to configure a qeth network device and loaded the ISO image from
the URL: http://
This all worked nicely (Thanks for bringing back the manual network
configuration!) and gave me a subiquity installer available via "ssh installer@<ip>" as well as on the "Integrated ASCII Console".
In the first installer step I chose "English" as the language,
then the next step is the keyboard layout but there the installer
immediately shows a "Sorry the installer encountered an internal error"
dialog (both via SSH and the integrated ASCII console).
The "Continue" button doesn't get me further and "Sent to Canonical"
then completely crashes the installer (which at least restarts).
I've used the same installation flow successfully with the
Ubuntu 20.10 ISO image. So I don't think I'm doing something
wrong. I also collected a the crash log which I've attached.
I think the relevant part here might be the following:

So I'm guessing the code is probing for a keyboard but we don't
have any or even usb so something fails.
