Yes, it's this bug [1].
As I said in the channel, Yaboot is just old and unmaintained and
causes these issues if you try to use it with a modern ext4.
If you format the partition with ext2 or ext3, it will work.
It's a known issue which I haven't fixed *yet*, there is only so much
I can fix within a given amount of time. Please do not expert everything
to be perfect and fool-proof right from the start. If in doubt, ask
but please be patient.
Thanks,
Adrian
