Bug#381244: partman-auto-lvm: Always calling the volume group "Debian" is probably not a good idea



Package: partman-auto-lvm
Severity: minor

RedHat did something similar. It's a real mess when you have a disk that
has been installed in this manner, and you want to pull it out and plug
it into another machine that has also been installed in this manner.

You end up with duplicate volume group names, and a world of hurt.

I would strongly recommend making it more unique and using the hostname
of the installation.

regards

Andrew
