[Bug 1261175] Re: [wishlist] F2FS missing in Ubiquity "Use as" partition option

[Mateusz Mikuła]

> Any such d-i component is going to have to warn that the partition on
which /boot resides cannot be f2fs, since grub does not support booting
from f2fs yet.

Next GRUB 2 release will include F2FS support. The change is so simple
it could be easily backported:

What remains is creating partman-f2fs and moving f2fs-* packages from universe to main.
