do you still have the device around as it was when it failed (or could
you set it up in the exact same manner as it was when it failed) i
suspect the device was formatted "raw" i.e. without a partition table so
partman finds a partition signature where it looks for a partition
table.

if you still have the device in that state, doing a: 
sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=debug_image.img bs=1M count=1
(indeed with the proper device name for /dev/sda here)

and attaching the resulting debug_image.img might help is to inspect the
issue a bit more.
