Concerning Volume Groups:
I'd suggest adding in your documentation that something like the following
won't work because of "-" after the volume group sizes.
And saying that volume group sizes must be EXACT or you'll get a generic
error from parted saying that /dev/sda has a bad label
Bad disk_config file:
[...]
Oh, this is not intended behavior, that's a bug. Could you re-run that with the
bad config and debug=1 and mail the output?
Thanks,
