From the documentation on recipes:
| Due to limitation of the algorithms in partman-auto, there must be at
| least one partition with high maximal size so that the whole free
| space can be used.  Usually you can give the partition containing
| /home a maximal size 1000000000 which is high enough for the present
| storage devices. If the large /home is not an option for you, you can

| 1000000000, method "keep" and leave it unmounted.  When the
| installation completes you can remove it.

Cheers,
