Re: screenshots for ch1

 

As you can see from screenshots - half of the process works well.
I had a little issue when I took a break, closed install setup and later
continued with taking "keyboard-setup". QS in this case hadn't started
ubiquity so I had to click on recapture first screenshot and hit Back when
ubiquity started up.

Another problem came up when I realized I can't install Ubuntu on the same
disk I running installation from. My bad. :D

And the final hiccup when I finally pressed Install button and installation
crashed leaving no message of what has happened whatsoever.
