  OS: 24.04 LTS (Noble Numbat)
  I started the Ubuntu installation for 24.04 LTS (Noble Numbat) on L1(HOST) having SAN disk, it failed with the following error just after I chose the disk.

  The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

  I tried following 2 installation methods, it is failing in both the ways: 
  1) kexec method
  2) attaching vdvd and starting installer

  NOTE: It is happening only when the system has SAN disks otherwise this installation worked fine.
  I will be attaching the crash report for this!

  == Comment:- Hariharan T S ==
  Verified the following cases. 
  Installation on Disk from VIOS  - PASSED
  Installatoin on Disk from VIOS and system had Disks from SAN - FAILED
  Installation on Disk from SAN and system ahd Disk from VIOS - FAILED

  == Comment:- Vaibhav Jain ==
  Problem seems to happening when Subuquity enters the disk partition view. The system has a SAN disk and an existing Mullti Path DM volume on it.
