there is an error if you set partition_table to auto o mbr (tested on vm)
it's ok if you set to GPT

parted creates only swap partition

Hi buzzqw,
EDIT: This issue *should* be solved now, after i changed the relevant part. I just tested it in virtualbox and the installation completed. Please download the new version and report back.
Thank you.

Yes, this is a bug. However, your suggestion is not a solution for it, as the flag -f is not universally used across the different variants of mkfs.

mkfs.ext4(8)
     -f fragment-size
              Specify the size of fragments in bytes.

Wipefs is used with the intention to erase the filesystems, but apparently (according to your post) it does not manage to erase the signatures completely.

283:wipefs -a "$dest_disk"
