The right way to solve this is probably to tell the dm-crypt layer to
stop using it, then delete it.

I am usually too lazy to bother with that, so I just delete the
partition table, then reboot the installer.  e.g.

    parted /dev/sda mklabel msdos yes

or

    cat /dev/zero >/dev/sda

If writing over the start of the disk isn't sufficient, fuck it, just
write zeroes over the ENTIRE disk, then come back after lunch and try
the install again.
