Public bug reported:
Attempting to partition a device in AWS using mbr fails when there is an
existing filesystem detected. Per smoser this is due to the need to
wipefs which cloud-init doesn't currently do.
Cloud-init config:
#cloud-config
disk_setup:
ephemeral1:
table_type: mbr
layout: true
overwrite: true
fs_setup:
- label: None
filesystem: ext4
device: ephemeral1
partition: auto
overwrite: true
