@lemmuh, please don't post that ISO publicly. Anyone else who has this problem and we can't get it sorted out please contact Dell support and they'll share the ISO image to you.

@acallan:
I think this might be a side effect of an unexpected missing utility partition that we expected at factory install.

Can you please provide the output of this command:
# sudo lsblk -o name,mountpoint,label,size,uuid

Hopefully that will identify what's happening.

Here's a temporary fix that should get the media generated for you. Once I can see what partitions are on your system I'll know if it can be a permanent fix or not.
