For installation one would expect a clean sheet. Maybe installation could have
a script which purges existing partitions first.
And/or have a re-insallation option to preserve existing.
However, it may seem that existing partitions may cause a lot of failures due
to the issues I experienced with nvme, existing partitions, and the
bash cannot set terminal process group (1076): inappropriate ioctl for device
messages.
Food for thought.

Yes it tests for existing partition, because you may want to preserve the
partition and/or the data in it.
