Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
As I said in the title, choosing to use manual partitioning I see "Install Now" displayed and apparently active before changing and/or selecting any partitions.
I'm currently trying to reproduce a bug where the new ubiquity tries to erase a drive with 4 NTFS partitions with no warning, but I needed to try a box with an actual Windows OS installed rather than 4 blank NTFS partitions.
Therefore I did not click on "Install Now" to see what happened. So I'll probably have to repeat this at some point, unless someone else would like to give it a whirl.

Marking this invalid. I repeated the test in an environment where I needn't worry about data loss and if "Install Now" is selected w/o defining a root partition a warning pops up and stops you.
Sorry to be a pain, I've just been installing so much in an effort to reproduce certain potential bugs I'm getting worn out and rather rummy.
