"I.e. one could check whether the disk is of type dasd_fba and in this case not request a dasd label." but how would one do that in partman-base? given that parted does report "dasd" type to partman. Note that partman-partitioning ultimately decides what the default partition table is, and users can override that. What I have uploaded is a whitelist, thus if somebody export FBA via virtio, it will result in using dasd partition table =(. However, the combination of FBA and KVM is niche no? (as in running kvm, in z/VM, with FBA pass-through virtio devices)
