[Bug 1929213] Re: Ubuntu server LVM creates clone partitions and crash installation

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

wwn: '0x5000000000000000' is not a valid wwn and should have been
rejected by udev & probert. All zeros are not allowed, and 5 is just a
prefix.

I think this is an OEM / whitelabel drive, with expectation that
somebody who ships these drives will use their WWN prefix and flash
their own WWN as they see fit..... If they cared.

** Summary changed:

- Ubuntu server LVM creates clone partitions and crash installation
+ Ubuntu server LVM creates clone partitions and crash installation (invalid wwn is used  by udev & probert as well)

Title:
  Ubuntu server LVM creates clone partitions and crash installation
  (invalid wwn is used  by udev & probert as well)

Bug description:
  #I've already sent crash report from installer, but since I'm not
  quite sure how #it's handled, might as well follow up with this.

  #I've been tinkering with ubuntu server and some old HW. Long story short, since #I'm not used to CLI/text like install and missed that installer reverse order of #HDDs I ended up with disk setup where /boot, /boot/efi along with LVM handling #root were on /sdb
  #To be precise:
  #sdb:
  #/boot
  #/boot/efi
  #/lvm/root

  #sda:
  #/lvm/root

  #This failed at some point with message refering boot/grub could not be found on #/dev/sda1:
  #
  #"could not get path to dev from kname sda1"
  #
  #If I set up everything on sda it works fine.
