Public bug reported:

[Impact]

 * DASD drives have two types ECKD and FBA.
 * ECKD have been made to use dasd partition table by default, however can be 
used with msdos partition table
 * FBA devices use msdos partition table by default
 * Both types of drives can only hold 3 partitions
 * However parted/partman default to using logical partitions with default 
installation recipe, thus exploading instalations.

[Test Case]

 * Start the installer, activate ECKD and/or FBA devices
 * In case of ECKD choose to use msdos partition table (label)
 * The installer should only create primary partitions, and not offer to create 
logical partitions in any way
