[Bug 1666127] [NEW] Installation crashes when data exists on disc

[Peter Davis]

Public bug reported:

1) Can only instal if whole disc is used.

2) If an existing installation (OpenSUSE with BTRFS) installation fails
one way or another.

(An option to select less than the whole disc would be useful!)
