Comments/Problems:
daily image very nice, seems quite close to a rc.
some minor glitches or wishlists:
1) was my first time lvm usage on d-i:
as shown above i wanted 2 partitions for the hard disc
one for root and the other for lvm.
* maybe i was to quick first, but i choose format the partion
for both the partitions, had overseen the "use for lvm".
when trying to configure lvm it let my do, but it had
of course no physical volume!
perhaps a check for a pv should be made before allowing
volume groups to be made?
* when deleting the lvm partition, the physical volume,
all the already created volume/physical groups related
to it won't be deleted.
* a menu entry for "list volume/physical groups" would be very nice.
at the moment you have to go to delete to see which you already created.
2) as my install was via serial cable i would appreciate that
grub/lilo (used default grub) contain the boot args that
were initially typed in: console=ttyS0,115200
on reboot they were lost
thanks a lot for your work and good luck for rc1.

Serial console support has been present in lilo-installer for a while
already, so I'm closing this bug. Submitter seems to only have tried
grub.
