Somewhat OT, but there is no place on the iso-tracker to report this, I just did a 'replace' test and things worked perfectly!

The "upgrade distroX to distroY" was a pure stroke of genius. I still need to perform a 'Wubi if 4 primaries exist' test with this iso but I'd bet it still works OK - you know I'll complain if it doesn't.

Quite honestly IMHO this is the last major obstacle with this version of ubiquity. Considering the way ubiquity works in other regards there are two choices to fix the UI:

1) Have ubiquity display what it's going to do after selecting "alongside" even if it's going to use free space.

2) have ubiquity present using free space as a different option.

Of course this late in the dev cycle I'm inclined to think this is best addressed in the release notes.

Sorry to just ramble, now onto the Wubi test.
