Don't know what I managed to screw up in the previous experiment, but I just tried again and I can install a working virtual machine by first formatting the virtual disk, then telling the installer to use the partition without reformatting. I used the system rescue CD iso and gparted this time rather than gnome-disks, maybe it likes gparted created partitions better.
