I ran into this bug with the latest alternative stable 20251017-questing.
I checked #429 and #430, but it's not because of the partition labels this time.
I already tried to change and/or delete partition labels, but it didn't help, I always get the same error after choosing savedisk.

Please, find attached a screen copy-paste log, with the /proc/partitions, lsblk, blkid and mount outputs as well.

Also note the xargs error in the log at the ocs-scan-disk.

My first guess is that the problem is somehow related to the model name of one of the disks, which contains a double quote ("):

root@cl-20251017-q:~$ lsblk -d -o name,type,size,model,serial -e 1,7,11 -x name -n
sda disk 119.2G SAMSUNG SSD PM830 2.5" 7mm 128GB S0TYNSAD349831
sdb disk   1.8T TOSHIBA HDWL120                  11C1P059T
sdc disk 931.5G PSSD T7                          S5SYNJ0NC06300H
sdd disk  28.9G DataTraveler 3.0                 049226C31242E810297D0267

Any further ideas how I could help to debug this?

    Thanks for your feedback.
    I believe the culprit is the double quotation mark in the model:
    sda disk 119.2G SAMSUNG SSD PM830 2.5" 7mm 128GB S0TYNSAD349831

    Will try to fix this issue in the next testing release.
