[Parted-maintainers] Bug#549331: Problem reloading extended partitions

[Anthony L. Awtrey]

I tried to work around the issue by making the preseed config use 
extended partitions like the original, but the install still fails with 
the exact same error message.

I noted that the device nodes /dev/sda and /dev/sda5 are present in the 
/dev directory and /proc/partitions, so it seems that /dev/sda1, 
/dev/sda2 and /dev/sda3 are being removed correctly, but /dev/sda5 isn't 
being removed before trying to create the new /dev/sda1.

Still digging...
