Bug Description
On step 6 of 7, I selected 'Manually edit partition table', and got:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/
install(
File "/usr/bin/
ret = wizard.run()
File "/usr/lib/
self.

if self.manual_choice is None or unicode(choice, "utf-8") == self.manual_choice:
TypeError: decoding Unicode is not supported
I have 2 disks in this machine (/dev/hda, /dev/hdb), and chose English, Europe/London for language/TZ settings.
There's a very similar line in the next function down, which doesn't have the unicode(..., "utf-8"), so I think perhaps line 771 should read:
if self.manual_choice is None or choice == self.manual_choice:
rather than:
if self.manual_choice is None or unicode(choice, "utf-8") == self.manual_choice:
I can't test this very easily though, since the file is read only on the CD.
