Bug#437016: d-i inconsistent in definition of GB used



Package: debian-installer
Version: 20070308

During an Etch install, the partitioning step is inconsistent about the definition of a gigabyte.
For example, when LVM volumes are created, the definition of GB used for specifying their size is
(1024*1024*1024) bytes.  However, the definition of GB used on the main partitioning screen is a billion
(1000*1000*1000) bytes.  Thus, a 10.0GB LVM volume will appear confusingly as 10.6 GB on the main partitioning
screen.  This should be fixed in a future d-i build.
