I stop installation when it doesn't detect the partitions, but I can
cetainly give fdisk and parted.  I'll make the bug report.  (I should add
that due to various and sundry issues, I don't know how much help I can
give anyone trying to debug, and yes, I realize how that makes it less
likely that this gets fixed)
