[Bug 1455514] [NEW] Installer crashed while installing Ubuntu 15.04 to a ZFS zvol

[Matthew X. Economou]

Public bug reported:

I am trying to install Ubuntu 15.04 to a LUKS-encrypted ZFS pool, but
the installer won't let me skip partitioning.  To work around this, I
created a 16-GiB zvol named temproot (/dev/zd16), and I partitioned that
like one would a regular hard disk.
