Comment 4 for bug 1917724

I have a wee bit of a concern that the kpmcore patch we added to get EFI installs working in Calamares may have had an impact here. I hope not, but I'm concerned. If that's the case, we may have to throw the latest Git master of kpmcore in a PPA and rebuild Calamares against it and try with that. In which case we may have to either drop that patch and issue release notes with a workaround for the label issue or ship Git master (probably not).

To reduce noise, can we just forget about reusing and extra partitions and stuff and simply do a fresh partition table with either xfs, reiserfs, or btrfs (i.e. 3 separate tests) and see if it fails similarly? In other words, I want to test just whether or not creating the file system on a fresh table works. This should just work. It certainly should just work in kpm, as it has in the past. If those fail and especially if they all fail, that's trouble.
