Am i right in thinking that partman-prep, like partman-palo, is supposed to
allow you to select a partition, and then use it as palo|prep boot partition ?
Somehow partman/partman-prep fails to do this here, and correctly conplains
afterward that there is no such prep-boot partition arround. It even doesn't
work if there is a prep partition installed by hand, altough you can bypass
the question and continue the install even then.
