[Bug 2071710] [NEW] Installation fails at partition creation on Lenovo thinkpad p15v2

[Klaus Anderson]

Public bug reported:

While trying a fresh installation on my lenovo thinkpad p15v2 laptop,
the installation fails at the phase where it tries to create the new
partitions (I believe).

The system had earlier an encrypted zfs on 24.04 that was updated from
23.10 and that did not reboot anymore, so I decided to try a fresh
install. Before that I was able to manually mount the old FS in read-
only mode and copy out files that I needed. So the disk itself seems to
be ok at least for reading, but there might also be some generic issue
because also the old encrypted ZFS failed to boot.

I tried different FS and partition options (encrypted LVM, manual
partitioning to boot + ext4 root, no special options), but that didn't
make any difference, the failure seemed to be the same. Also tried with
and without updated installer, same error.
