Bug#720162: debian-installer: Installed system is unbootable due to missing LVM support

["M. Schulte" <mfuglos@gmail.com>]

Hi KiBi,

I'm really sorry for not writing back for so long -- had been quite
occupied.

Also, the problem was that right after the installation I had documented
in the bug report, I did a fresh reinstall of Debian stable in order to
verify that the same partitioning scheme yields a working system (in
order to exclude my input being the problem). Hence I couldn't send you
the install log. It turned out that the Debian stable installation
worked fine (i.e. LVM had been installed).

Then I tried to reproduce the bug in the testing installer again using
qemu. But LVM2 got installed in qemu! I don't know what the reason for
this might be. Maybe it had to do with the fact that the virtualized hd
was empty in the beginning and during partinioning I only setup
partitions for Debian while the non-virtualized harddisk in my notebook
contained several NTFS partitions next to which I had installed Debian.

But so far I didn't do any further tests in order to reproduce the bug. :-/

Best wishes,
mel
