Bug#347248: partman-lvm: Confusing message during LVM setup
Package: partman-lvm
Severity: normal
During LVM setup, the following message is displayed:
"After the Logical Volume Manager is configured, no additional changes
to the partitions in the disks containing physical volumes are allowed.
Please decide if you are satisfied with the current partitioning scheme
in these disks before continuing."
This message is confusing, especially because the fact that
no changes are allowed to the partition table only applies to
the installation process. Once the system is running, it *is*
for example possible to add new partitions in unallocated space.
I propose to change the message to
"After the Logical Volume Manager is configured, no additional changes
to the partitions in the disks containing physical volumes can be made
during the installation process. Please decide if you are satisfied
with the current partitioning scheme in these disks before continuing.
Additional partitions in the remaining free space can be created once
the system is installed."
