Title:
  partman-auto lacks default guided partitioning recipes for s390x

Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in partman-auto package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Default guided installation fails on s390x.

  The default guided partitioning comes up with the following
  partitions:

   The following partitions are going to be formatted:
      partition #1 of DASD 0.0.0301 (ECKD) as ext4
      partition #5 of DASD 0.0.0301 (ECKD) as swap
      partition #6 of DASD 0.0.0301 (ECKD) as ext4

  Which are too high partition numbers.

  partitions #1, #2, #3 should be sufficient.

  As a workaround, select to manually specify paritioning, e.g.:

      partition #1 of DASD 0.0.0301 (ECKD) as ext2, 500 MB /boot
      partition #2 of DASD 0.0.0301 (ECKD) as ext4, max /

  The route cause appears to be lack of s390x support in partman-auto.
