Package: partman Severity: important Tags: d-i Partman seems to get confused about identical sized lvm and raid partitions. I select one of the raid partitions and it insists on thinking I told it to set up a lvm partition. This is probably just because the choice in the list has exactly the same text: "#1 1.0 GB". Details: I have only one disk, but as part of testing I split it into 8 1 mb raid partitions, and a lvm array. The lvm was split into some 1 gb LV's. The raid partitions were used to make some raid 1 and raid 5 arrays, some of which came out to be 1.0 gb in size. The resulting partition table looks something like this: LVM VG foo, LV bar - 1.0 GB #1 1.0 GB ext3 /tmp LVM VG foo, LV baz - 1.0 GB #1 1.0 GB LVM VG foo, LV ook - 1.0 GB #1 1.0 GB RAID1 device #0 - 1.0 GB Software RAID device #1 1.0 GB RAID0 device #1 - 2.0 GB Software RAID device #1 2.0 GB ext3 /usr If I select the first RAID partition, the next screen says "you are editing partition #1 of LVM VG foo, LV baz". Note that that partition has the identical text in the select list.. I guess that something unique should be added to the LVM and raid parititons to disambiguate. I have the same problem if I pick LVM LV ook's partition; since it looks the same as the previous LVM partition. Note that this would probably also affect identical sized regular partitions on different drives, if they had the same partition number. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.26 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US -- see shy jo
