Robert,
I took a quick gander at util-linux source, and it is just reading
/sys/class/block/<KERNEL_NAME>/removable
There isnt' any util-linux specific knowledge that says "this is
removable", but rather its just telling you what the kernel is telling
it.
Would you mind posting/attaching:
sudo lshw
?
I really suspect at this point that kernel is reporting "correctly", and
that curtin probably has an incorrect idea of what "removable" means. So
I'm goign to move this off util-linux and to curtin for now.

Title:
Drives mistakenly reported as removable
Status in curtin:
Confirmed
Status in curtin package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I have multiple servers which report their drives are removable, even
though the drives are the main drives in the device (/dev/sda,
/dev/sdb, etc). One of such machines (an IBM system x3650 M1) I have
pulled a report from lsblk and lshw below and included them. These are
configured using the RAID controller that came with the machine. I can
provide any other information needed. I am seeing the same on a HP
proliant DL100 g2. In this case the removable tag is triggering a
problem with curtin since curtin currently refuses to install to
drives reported as removable by lsblk.
