How is this going to be useful ? I guess the point is make debconf ask
certain question and as per the answer select the profiles and
associated partitioning mechanism. are there any plans to use languages
like perl or python to do the partitioning . PGI uses a python based
installer but as on now doesn't support many partition table . From the
above link it is mentioned BSD and sun partition table support is in
CVS. Is there any plans to go with any of these ?
