Bug Description

The release notes link on the first screen of the install loads www.ubuntu.com instead of the release notes themselves.

Not sure whether this is a ubiquity problem or a server side problem.

The url used for the release notes can be found in /media/cdrom/.disk/release_notes_url and it is set to:

http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes?os=ubuntu&ver=12.04&lang=${LANG}

which ends up redirecting to www.ubuntu.com.
