Bug Description
MAAS tries to place the prep partition for a power8 system at the end of the disk with the partition number of 15. Of course this means that partition 14 might not exists and in most cases it will not. Since curtin expects the partitions to be placed on the disk in order, this breaks installation.

I would assume that curtin would expect the order of the partition in the curtin storage configuration for that disk and not look for the previous partition based on number. To me it would make since that curtin just figures out the next available offset on the disk and starts the partition from that.
