[Bug 1046965] [NEW] ubiquity can't mount / on xfs

[karl anliot]

Public bug reported:

i booted to a livecd, and installed lubuntu on a xfs disk by using the manual partitioner.  
I used 1 xfs partition to mount /
The operation seemed to compelete successfully, but upon rebooting, all i could see was an error about "serious erorrs were found while checking the disk drive for /."

I managed to muck around in the fstab and fix the /etc/fstab file and the error went away.
I did this by changing the last column in the line that mounts / from 1 to 0
to fix this bug, it should not write to the fstab incorrectly.
