[Bug 1409479] [NEW] Installation fails on LVM drive with no /boot partition outside the LVM

[Damiön la Bagh]

Public bug reported:

Installed Ubuntu to a broken system using the USB stick that was already
running with UEFI and LVM.

The Ubiquity installer should send a warning before you finish
partitioning that installing without a /boot outside the LVM might fail,
with the choice to continue or edit partitions.
