Bug Description

Binary package hint: debian-installer

How to reproduce:
Create a partition for LVM
Configure LVM
As a mistake, select the physical LVM partition
At this point, the installer throws an error, saying that the partition is in use and gives you 2 options: Go Back and Continue.
Select Go Back

At this point, the install doesn't continue anymore and just stays on a blank screen.

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Exit straight away if a called script is killed by a signal.
  * Disable backup while displaying device/partition locked errors; it makes
    no sense and it can cause us to exit without closing the FIFO to
    parted_server (LP: #274219).
  * Record that CHANGE_FILE_SYSTEM changes the partition table
    (LP: #149832).

  [ Evan Dandrea ]
  * Exclude devices that have mounted partitions. Useful for when installing
    from a disk (LP: #276656). This can be disabled by preseeding
    partman/filter_mounted to false.
