Title:
  Entire disc install shows partition will be removed when no partition
  exists

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Just testing Lubuntu QQ 20120606 i386 live image and noticed something
  I've not noticed before. Performing an "entire disc" install with two
  drives attached the installer says one partition will be deleted
  although no partition exists on that drive. I'll post a screenshot,
  but here's what I started with:

  lubuntu at lubuntu:~$ sudo parted -l
  Model: ATA WDC WD1600BEVS-2 (scsi)
  Disk /dev/sda: 160GB
  Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
  Partition Table: msdos

  Number  Start   End     Size    Type      File system     Flags
   1      32.3kB  41.9GB  41.9GB  primary   ntfs            boot
   2      41.9GB  160GB   118GB   extended
   6      41.9GB  51.9GB  10.0GB  logical   ext4
   7      51.9GB  62.8GB  10.8GB  logical   ext4
   8      62.8GB  72.8GB  9999MB  logical   ext4

  12      104GB   114GB   9999MB  logical   ext4
  13      114GB   158GB   44.4GB  logical   ext4
   5      158GB   160GB   2034MB  logical   linux-swap(v1)

  
  Model: ATA Maxtor 33073U4 (scsi)
  Disk /dev/sdb: 30.7GB
  Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
  Partition Table: msdos

  Number  Start  End  Size  Type  File system  Flags

  
  Warning: Unable to open /dev/sr0 read-write (Read-only file system).  /dev/sr0
  has been opened read-only.
  Error: Can't have a partition outside the disk!         

  And the installer appears to have done the right thing:

  
  lubuntu at lubuntu:~$ sudo parted -l
  Model: ATA WDC WD1600BEVS-2 (scsi)
  Disk /dev/sda: 160GB
  Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B

  I'll comment more later, right now I'm so tired I can barely keep my
  eyes open :^)
