incorrect city location(London) when first installing jaunty

[amw3465]

I re-installed Jaunty beta (64 bit) today and noticed that the location area I chose upon installing is incorrect. I chose London on the map and London was shown to be in the middle of the English channel, between Devon and Cornwall and France!

Please can you take a look at the screen shot that I've attached, and confirm whether or this is what you saw when you were installing. If it is, I would say that London is in the right place. If it isn't, please could you attach a screen shot of your installer.

No thats not what I saw when I did a fresh install yesterday. I was using
the beta of Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit version. How do i take a screenshot when
installing?

Are you using the live CD or not? If you are, I think that you can take a screenshot in the usual way, or by seeing if "Take Screenshot" is under accessories in the menu. Otherwise, the only other thing I can think of is taking a photo of the monitor with a digital camera and uploading it to your computer.

Thanks for your report. This is essentially bug 334284, which we believe to have been largely fixed since the beta (although the beta definitely was broken as you describe); there's no need for further information or screenshots here.
