I used the same iso with a much simpler partitioning arrangement, just one drive with one basic pre-existing Linux install, and things proceeded normally. So maybe it's just a matter of parted not being able to proceed with complex pre-existing partitioning arrangements? Or maybe it's a matter of having two physical drives?
