[Bug 1756962] [NEW] Install root partition on btrfs causes installer to crash

[Nadav]

Public bug reported:

I tried the following, both cause the installer to crash:
1. Install system to a / partition with no /boot partition
2. Install system to a / partition with a ext4 /boot partition

Can't say much more.
