Package: partman-auto-lvm
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i squeeze
With grub2 being installed by default in squeeze, it should be possible
to instruct partman to create all partitions as LVM logical volumes,
however an error is generated in this configuration.
Working preseed configuration:
d-i partman-auto/expert_recipe string \
boot-root ::
\
128 50 128 ext3 \
method{ format } format{ } \
use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext3 } \
mountpoint{ /boot } \
. \
1024 10000 10240 ext3 \
$lvmok{ } lv_name{ root } \
method{ format } format{ } \
use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext3 } \
mountpoint{ /
} \
. \
1024 512 1024 linux-swap \
$lvmok{ } lv_name{ swap } \
method{ swap } format{ } \
.
The above produces /dev/sda1 as /boot and /dev/sda5 as an LVM VG with
root and swap LVs.
Attempted configuration:
d-i partman-auto/expert_recipe string \
boot-root
:: \
128 50 128 ext3 \
$lvmok{ } lv_name{ boot } \
method{ format } format{ } \
use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext3 } \
mountpoint{ /boot } \
. \
1024 10000 10240 ext3 \
$lvmok{ } lv_name{ root } \
method{ format } format{ } \
use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext3 } \
mountpoint{ /
} \
. \
1024 512 1024 linux-swap \
$lvmok{ } lv_name{ swap } \
method{ swap } format{ } \
.
The above produces a red screen during install:
"Failed to partition the selected disk"
"This happened because the selected recipe does not contain any partition
that can be created on LVM volumes"
