Bug Description
My preseed file, if it includes `ubiquity/
With Ubuntu 14.04, I've used this param successfully for preseeded installs. With 20.04 (and also 18.04; so maybe 16.04 as well) preseed installs, I've had to leave this parameter out of my preseed files.

```

- A report for a separate issue in Xubuntu 18.04, with a warning message about the parameter: https:/
