Title:
  Installing with an invalid partition scheme fails ungracefully

Status in partman-partitioning package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Tried installing to a btrfs root partition without a separate /boot,
  this is accepted by the installer but fails on grub-installer midway
  through the installation process. The validity of the partition scheme
  should probably be checked earlier in the process.
