It works the same for the Woody, Sarge, Etch and Lenny installers.
It skips the following question by pre-selecting the manual method:
I understand, but I'm doing something wrong because I keep getting the "
Guided - use entire disk and set up LVM" partitioning layout. I'm using the scripts from hands.com/d-i, with some altered preseeding. I added the files in the early_script phase and confirmed they're there. Then I added a preseed script with exactly the contents as in your preseed.example. However, I still get the default Guided LVM thingy.
> At least, I still get "partman-base" selected.
I don't understand this sentence. The partman-base package is
installed (selected?) for me, too: it's what ask the above question.
Yeah, ignore this, I was still half asleep when i wrote this sentence :S
The above paste is from a Lenny installer session, fwiw. Please
clarify, and I'll try to help.

The early_script:

tar -zxf /tmp/extra.tar.gz -C /
Output from 'ls /dev/mapper' right after the partitioning (typed over from screen):
