[Bug 1541510] Comment bridged from LTC Bugzilla

[bugproxy]

------- Comment From MIHAJLOV at de.ibm.com 2016-02-05 08:33 EDT-------
I have run the installer with the libparted2-udeb-3.2-14ubuntu1 as follows:

First Run:
Empty DASD, no PV signatures.
Manual partitioning.
Make a single partition (/dev/dasda1) holding a PV.
Configure LVM: add VG, make new LV.
Use LV as / (ext4)
Continue installation (zipl fails, but this was probably to be expected)

Second Run:
DASD from first run: one partition, 1 PV, 1 VG, 1 LV.
Configure LVM: remove LV, VG.
Change partitioning:
/dev/dasda1 (1G): use as /boot (ext4)
/dev/dasda2 (21G): use as PV
Configure LVM: add VG, make to new LVs (root: 18G, swap: 3G)
Use LV root as / (ext4)
Use LV swap as swap
Continue installation and reboot

System comes up fine and I can run parted against all partitions and LVs
with no problems.
