This is because priority has been lowered to low. The main-menu
only shows up at medium priority. Same for keyboard type choice.

Hitting "Back" at the keyboard choice screen automatically lowered the
debconf priority. This is mostly a consequence of the general design
of the installer, IIRC.

Thus, you were on main menu at medium priority.

Choosing back lowered the priority again.....and you end up with
installing at "low" priority and be prompted on about everything....
