[Bug 1564788] Re: Installation on SCSI device using preseed file

** Description changed:

- Problem Description 
+ Problem Description
  ======================
- I would like to install on a SCSI device using a preseed file. But there is no documentation which keywords and syntax can be used to define the zFCP, WWPN and LUN in the preseed file.

  There is also no documentation if it is possible to define the zFCP, WWPN and LUN already in the parmfile and how this can be done.

+ [Impact]
+ 
+  * Updated the desired changes of the inst. guide regarding naming
+ conventions etc.
+ 
+  * and s390x specific details, especially the preseed chapter was
+ significantly updated with the s390x-specific new statements (incl. FCP)
+ 
+  * Because 18.04.1 is the main upgrade target it's important to have it
+ in place with 16.04.1
+ 
+  * The changes on the doc not only updated the outdated content ...
+ 
+  * ... but also added new functions and technology (like FCP) that was
+ added to the platform since the last update
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  * Open the updated doc - as either html, PS, PDF or txt ...
+ 
+  * and compare the modified and new content with the current
+ functionality the platform provides
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+  * The regression potential is low because most changes are platform
+ (s390x) specific
+ 
+  * However, since it's written in docbook with several conditional
+ statements changes on one platform may cause an impact to other, too.
+ 
+  * For verification reasons I created the guide after my changes not
+ only for s390x, but also for other platforms...
+ 
+  * ... and even found two issues that I fixed (nested use of xml
+ elements, that cause issues while creating PDF, even if HTML creation
+ still worked fine ...)
+ 
+  * No impact is expected on an Ubuntu installation itself - since it's
+ documentation only.

  [Impact]

   * Updated the desired changes of the inst. guide regarding naming
  conventions etc.

   * and s390x specific details, especially the preseed chapter was
  significantly updated with the s390x-specific new statements (incl.
  FCP)

   * Because 18.04.1 is the main upgrade target it's important to have
  it in place with 16.04.1

   * The changes on the doc not only updated the outdated content ...

   * ... but also added new functions and technology (like FCP) that was
  added to the platform since the last update

  [Test Case]

  functionality the platform provides

  [Regression Potential]

   * The regression potential is low because most changes are platform
  (s390x) specific

   * However, since it's written in docbook with several conditional
  statements changes on one platform may cause an impact to other, too.

   * For verification reasons I created the guide after my changes not
