Bug#273193: partman-lvm: fails to init lvols properly during d-i over a ssh session
Package: partman-lvm
Version: partman-lvm
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i
I tried the d-i rc1 to install sarge on a Dell 586 64Meg with 2 hd (hd0 - 1G, hd1 -100G).
I installed on the local box until I got to the point where I could create a ssh session.
I then started a ssh session to the box under the installer login, was able to create volumes.
It appeared that I could create lvols, space was allocated, however it was not accessable.
lvdisplay showed the LV Status and unknown.
I logged out of the ssh session and went back to the console on the box.
The d-i menu was still there.
I picked the lvm setup option.
deleted the lvols
created the lvols (this time it worked)
I was able to successfully install sarge from the console.
I had a 25M /boot on a primary partition
all other files systems (including /) and swap were successfully built on volumes.
Not being able to use ssh to setup the lvols was a minor inconvienence.
BTW, I was able to do another install over ssh without lvm.
