Description of problem: Tried an all-defaults install of the 2014-12-04 Rawhide nightly Workstation x86_64 with an updates.img to fix https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1167036 (just cherry-picked the two relevant commits from clumens). Gets past that crash, then crashes during filesystem creation at the start of install.

Proposing as an Alpha blocker, criterion "The installer must be able to complete an installation to a single disk using automatic partitioning." - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_21_Alpha_Release_Criteria#Disk_layouts
pvcreate is claiming that the vda2 is in use. Does it show up in mount, or swapon -s, or lsof?
I don't think I've seen this one since the initial report.
