## observation
Trying to install on a partition with incomplete previous cryptlvm installation
stalls when preparing disks in new installation.


## steps to reproduce

* start installation using cryptlvm
* when installation started, e.g. after partitions have been created, abort to
simulate failed installation
* restart installation
* observe error in step "preparing disks"


## problem

Reproduced multiple times with different partition setups. As it looks like
Leap42.2 in Build 0109 can not cope with this. I could recover from this
problem using Tumbleweed in current version as of 20160722. Maybe superblock
probing or similar has a problem here.
A potential workaround for the user could be to zero the superblock and hard
disk content before continuing with the installation but I did not try that
yet.
