Your video description is not correct. d-i does not use parted
but libparted. The correct command is "partman":

~ # find . -name "partman"
./var/log/partman
./var/lib/partman
./lib/partman
./bin/partman
~ #

partman uses libparted:

~ # find . -name "libpart*"
./cdrom/pool-sparc64/main/p/parted/libparted2-udeb_3.2-24_sparc64.udeb
./cdrom/pool-sparc64/main/p/parted/libparted-fs-resize0-udeb_3.2-24_sparc64.udeb
./lib/libparted.so.2
./lib/libparted.so.2.0.1
./lib/libparted-fs-resize.so.0
./lib/libparted-fs-resize.so.0.0.1
~ #

These files are part of partman-base which is shipped on the ISO (I just
verified that).
