Comment 7 for bug 1352163

Please revive this. None of all the google links related to: "preseed Choose a mirror of the ubuntu archive" have a solution.

# part of my debconf console log:

.. and I get stuck on the dialog "Choose a mirror of the Ubuntu archive" with in my case, ca.archive.ubuntu.com.
I tried with a custom mirror (different mirror/http/hostname), still ca.archive.ubuntu.com came up as a choice and in the log above. Also tried with en_US instead in both kernel params and preseed. And I checked out every google result available on the subject. No luck.

Help :)
