Comment 8 for bug 1876258

I got the same error via pxe and manual install on vmware. If I use the default lvm partitioning it works, if I use manual non-LVM partitioning it fails.

i.e. this works:

 storage:
    swap:
      size: 0
    config:
    - {ptable: gpt, path: /dev/sda, wipe: superblock, preserve: false, name: '', grub_device: true,
      type: disk, id: disk-sda}
    - {device: disk-sda, size: 1M, flag: bios_grub, number: 1, preserve: false,
      type: partition, id: partition-0}
    - {device: disk-sda, size: 1G , wipe: superblock, flag: '', number: 2,
      preserve: false, type: partition, id: partition-1}
    - {fstype: ext4, volume: partition-1, preserve: false, type: format, id: format-0}
    - {device: disk-sda, size: -1 , wipe: superblock, flag: '', number: 3,
      preserve: false, type: partition, id: partition-2}
    - name: ubuntu-vg
      devices: [partition-2]
      preserve: false
      type: lvm_volgroup
      id: lvm_volgroup-0
    - {name: ubuntu-lv, volgroup: lvm_volgroup-0, size: 16101933056B, preserve: false,
      type: lvm_partition, id: lvm_partition-0}
    - {fstype: ext4, volume: lvm_partition-0, preserve: false, type: format, id: format-1}
    - {device: format-1, path: /, type: mount, id: mount-1}
    - {device: format-0, path: /boot, type: mount, id: mount-0}

This does not:

  storage:
    swap:
      size: 0
    config:
    - {ptable: gpt, path: /dev/sda, wipe: superblock, preserve: false, name: '', grub_device: true,
      type: disk, id: disk-sda}
    - {device: disk-sda, size: 1M, flag: bios_grub, number: 1, preserve: false,
      type: partition, id: partition-0}
    - {device: disk-sda, size: 1G , wipe: superblock, flag: '', number: 2,
      preserve: false, type: partition, id: partition-1}
    - {fstype: ext4, volume: partition-1, preserve: false, type: format, id: format-0}
    - {device: disk-sda, size: -1 , wipe: superblock, flag: '', number: 3,
      preserve: false, type: partition, id: partition-2}
    - {fstype: ext4, volume: partition-2, preserve: false, type: format, id: format-1}
    - {device: format-1, path: /, type: mount, id: mount-1}
    - {device: format-0, path: /boot, type: mount, id: mount-0}
