Wrong partition device naming scheme

Hi,

when creating a partition table and partitions in a Linux logical volume
(to be used as a virtual hard disk for qemu), e.g.
/dev/mapper/vg-disk, then parted automatically creates partition entries
like /dev/mapper/vg-diskp1, ..p2, and so on.

These partition entries are incompatible with other linux uses, e.g.
grub expects the usual scheme where just 1,2,3 (without p) is appended
to the base device name.

regards
Hadmut
